In this episode of The Thais Gibson Podcast, we dive deep into the challenges faced by those with a Fearful Avoidant attachment style, often referred to as disorganized attachment. If you find yourself struggling with intense triggers in your relationships—leading to actions you later regret—this episode is for you. We explore the roots of these emotional responses, the impact of past traumas, and how your subconscious mind plays a role in perpetuating these cycles.
Through understanding how triggers work, both emotionally and physiologically, you'll gain insights into why you might feel overwhelmed and stuck in certain situations. We discuss the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses, and how they manifest in those with Fearful Avoidant tendencies.
This episode also introduces the BTEA framework—Beliefs, Thoughts, Emotions, Actions—and how you can start identifying and reprogramming your own patterns. By the end of the episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of your triggers and actionable steps to start healing and transforming your relationships.
Tune in for a mini-masterclass on overcoming your biggest triggers and reclaiming your emotional balance, and stay tuned for an exercise that will help you map out your personal triggering patterns. Whether you're seeking to stop sabotaging your relationships or simply want to move from a state of surviving to thriving, this episode provides the tools you need to start that journey.
