🎙️ Episode: Caught In A Push-Pull Relationship? Why You Crave Connection But Fear Closeness


Do you crave love, but the moment he gets too close, you feel like pulling away?

Then, when he distances himself, do you panic and feel the need to pull him back?


This push-pull pattern is draining, confusing, and exhausting.


In this episode, we’re breaking down:

âś” Why this happens and where it comes from

âś” How to feel safe in love without panic or fear

âś” Practical steps to stop overanalyzing and start trusting love


Because love isn’t something you have to fight for. It’s something you can learn to receive.


This week, try one small shift:

💡 Pause before reacting. Take a deep breath and remind yourself: “I am safe.”

💡 Write down a message of reassurance you’d give to a little girl—and say it to yourself.

đź’ˇ Let yourself experience love without overthinking it.


Because love isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being present.


💬 Tell me in the comments: What’s one thing you’re ready to change about how you handle love?


Listen now and tell me your thoughts.
