🎙️ In this revealing episode of "I Wish You Knew," Adam Lane Smith, the attachment specialist, reconnects with a returning guest with an avoidant attachment style. This time, he opens up about his relationship.

Adam and his client dive deep into the intense struggles avoidant men face when it comes to trust, vulnerability, and building genuine connections. Kimmi shares the breakthrough moments that led him to realize he isn’t a “bad person” for being guarded, and how opening up has become both a terrifying and rewarding journey.

This isn’t just another talk about attachment—it’s an honest look at how fear, trust, and co-regulation play into love and relationships.
