Avoidant Attachment: When letting people in feels too close, too risky, too much

Nat Lynn Season 1 Episode 10

This episode is for the quiet protectors. The ones who love deeply — but from a distance.

The ones who pull away when things get too close. The ones who crave connection… and yet fear being seen.

If you’ve ever said, “I’m fine on my own,” but secretly felt lonely… or if you feel suffocated when people get emotionally close… you may be operating from an avoidant attachment style.

In this compassionate episode, we explore:

• What avoidant attachment really is — and why it’s not your fault

• How early emotional environments shape your beliefs around closeness, trust, and

vulnerability

• The push-pull between independence and intimacy

• How your nervous system protects you from emotional overwhelm by creating distance

• Gentle counselling insights, self-reflection prompts, and practical steps toward secure connection

• A short guided hypnotic moment to help you feel safe softening your defences, without losing your autonomy.

You’re not broken for finding it hard to let people in.

You’ve simply adapted. This episode is an invitation — not to force closeness, but to build it slowly, from a place of safety and self-trust.

Real connection doesn’t require you to lose yourself. It begins when you feel safe enough to stay.
