Anxious Meets Avoidant: How We Used to Break Down in Conflict — and What It Took to Heal

Have you ever found yourself stuck in the same argument with your partner, feeling like nothing ever gets resolved? In this solo episode, Sasha shares how the anxious-avoidant dynamic showed up in her marriage and the patterns that kept conflict looping. She opens up about the turning point that helped her and her partner shift from disconnection to repair.

If conflict leaves you feeling overwhelmed, shut down, or afraid of losing love, this episode will offer real tools and relief. Sasha breaks down what’s really happening beneath the surface—and how to navigate conflict with more clarity, calm, and connection.

Here’s our episode Soulful Trio Reflection questions for the week:

1. When conflict arises, do you chase, freeze, or shut down? 
2. What story are you attaching to conflict and where did you learn it from? 
3. What did you most resonate with about this episode?

In this episode, you will learn the following :

• Childhood experiences shape how we handle conflict as adults.
• Anxious partners pursue; avoidant partners shut down during conflict.
• Taking space is healthy—if it’s used for regulation, not rumination.
• Conflict isn’t the problem; lack of repair is.
• Sasha’s 5 R’s: Recognize, Regulate, Reflect, Reveal, Repair
