Avoiding conflict doesn’t make it go away. Avoiding talking about something 'hard' won't make it magically disappear. Avoiding difficult conversations drains your energy, keeps you in victim mode, and robs you of real connection.
In this episode we’re unpacking emotional avoidance—how it shows up in relationships, leadership, communication, and your inner world. Whether it looks like people-pleasing, perfectionism, or staying silent when it's actually time to speak up, this is about getting honest. Starting with yourself.
Today we're talking about:
- How avoiding conflict creates emotional burnout
- Why being “nice” isn’t the same as being kind (or honest).
- The connection between avoidance and people-pleasing.
- What happened when one client faced avoidance head-on—and changed everything.
- And how I’m breaking my own avoidant patterns in real time
This episode is for you if you’ve been:
- Holding back in a relationship.
- Avoiding hard conversations.
- Stuck in the loop of “I’ll just get over it”
- Or wondering why things feel off, but can’t quite name it.
You can’t change what you won’t name. Let’s talk about the truth you’re avoiding—and what happens when you stop.
