Because commitment is about capacity, not chemistry. If you find yourself trying harder, shrinking yourself, or becoming who you think they need you to be just to earn their commitment; this video is for you. Episode Summary In this episode, Thais Gibson breaks down why someone may struggle to commit, especially if they are Avoidantly Attached and what you can actually do about it. Many Avoidant individuals fear vulnerability, dependency, shame, or losing autonomy. They may genuinely care about you, but lack the subconscious conditioning required for emotional availability and long-term commitment. And here’s the truth: You cannot change someone else’s subconscious programming. So instead of trying to earn love or convince someone to choose you, this episode walks you through three powerful steps to honor yourself in the process. You’ll learn how to: • Set a personal deadline so you don’t stay in limbo indefinitely • Communicate your needs clearly and through positive framing • State and uphold your boundaries • Evaluate how comfortable you truly are taking up space Because staying silent and hoping someone changes will only lead to abandoning yourself.
