128 - Avoidant Attachment: The Real Reason They Pull Away

11/27/23 • 48 min

Healing Honeys (formerly OPENHOUSE with Louise Rumball)

The avoidantly attached deserved some airtime. Are avoidantly attached individuals avoiding love or avoiding vulnerability, rejection and potential discomfort? In this heavily requested episode, this week Louise & clinical psychologist Dr. Tari Mack dive into the Avoidant Attachment Style, shed light on the motivations behind the avoidantly attached and also explore how those with the avoidant attachment view OTHERS (including the anxiously attached!).

The pair discuss:

  • What’s really going on behind the Avoidant Attachment Style? (exploring the true drivers)
  • The difference between the Dismissive Avoidant and the Fearful Avoidant Attachment Style
  • How seeking comfort & sharing feelings is often thought of as ‘useless’ for the Avoidantly Attached
  • The ties between childhood & the avoidant attachment style
  • The specific triggers and fears related to this attachment style; and
  • Why withdrawal, shutting down, seeking space to regulate - often without communicating - can impact a relationship

The pair also discuss the top triggers and fears of the avoidant attachment style and why things often go wrong, quickly, after having sex.

129 - A Therapist on Alix Earle & Avoidant Attachment

LOVE Alix Earle. Did you know she is avoidantly attached! Today, Louise sits down with clinical psychologist and celebrity relationship expert Dr. Tari Mack to dissect all things Alix Earle & Braxton Berrios. The pair discuss recent soundbites from Alix Earle discussing her romantic life and use these to get inside the mind of the Avoidantly Attached so we can better understand those who relate to Aix.

Louise & Dr. Tari discuss:

  • The roots of avoidant attachment to childhood
  • How unconscious attraction keeps us replicating our past patterns
  • How her Father’s infidelity shaped her and developed a ‘trust wound’
  • The impact of family communication styles on adult attachment
  • ‘Independence vs. Hyper Independence’ and how an emphasis on independence can lead to distancing behaviors
  • Viewing relationships as ‘hard work’ requiring ‘lots of time, attention and investment’

The pair also discuss ‘The Trust Wound’ and the impact of its ability to trust others around us, particularly in dating.
