Breaking the Silence

The Dance: Why We’re Drawn to the Love We Fear


Listen Later

Have you ever found yourself in a relationship where the closer you get, the further they pull away? Or maybe, the more you retreat, the harder they chase? Welcome to the intricate and intense dance of the anxious-avoidant dynamic. In this episode, we unravel the magnetic push-pull that keeps you both locked in a cycle of desire and distance. Why are we so irresistibly drawn to the very love that terrifies us? Let’s dive deep into the emotional choreography that makes this dance so captivating—and how you can find a rhythm that leads to real connection.

Lets keep the conversation going, my beautiful friends. I would love to hear your thoughts, take aways, questions and/or stories over on the socials. You can connect with me on IG @coachingwithraynea or on FB.
