Avoidant Men Series: I Feel Like Commitment Means Losing My Freedom
Feel like commitment means losing your freedom? You're not broken — your nervous system mistakes closeness for captivity.
In this Avoidant Men episode, I break down why move-in talks trigger shutdown, chest tightness and fault-finding, how childhood rules and old relationship evidence keep the trap alive, and the hidden cost of choosing freedom over connection.
You'll get the gym analogy that reframes commitment, plus 3 practical steps to stay present, say what you need, and build secure freedom without losing yourself.
Join the live workshop below to go deeper. Perfect for avoidant men ready to love without feeling trapped now.
