Letting people in without losing yourself

Jul 21, 2025 11:01 am

Hey ,


Avoidant attachment often wires us to believe:

“I’m safest when I rely on no one.”


But here’s the problem: real connection isn’t possible without some degree of vulnerability.


The work isn’t about becoming dependent. It’s about expanding your capacity to receive—care, help, attunement—without collapsing or feeling invaded.


🧭 Try This:

Reflection Prompt:

What’s one thing I’ve wanted to ask for—but convinced myself I shouldn’t need?


Small Experiment:

Name one need this week—and allow someone to support you, even a little.


At the Coming Home To Love Retreat, we practice real-time relational healing. Not forced sharing or overexposure—just slow, skillful openings into intimacy that feel safe and self-honoring.


If you're ready to experience healthy connection your way, join us.


Early bird pricing extended for our email list subscribers. Just use the code SECURELOVE to get the lower price.
