Walking away from a Fearful Avoidant can feel like abandoning the person you love most. But in reality, being willing to walk away is what creates safety, self-respect, and healing for both people involved.

In this video, Thais Gibson explains why walking away from a Fearful Avoidant isn’t rejection — it’s regulation. You’ll learn how distance restores emotional balance, how it triggers subconscious accountability, and why this boundary can actually deepen real love and long-term connection.

You’ll learn:
✅ Why Fearful Avoidants often respect partners who set boundaries
✅ How nervous system regulation and space create transformation
✅ The neuroscience behind attachment ruptures and emotional reset
✅ How calling out unhealthy patterns builds trust rather than destroys it
✅ What “walking away” really means, and how to do it without threats or ultimatums
✅ Why this space is essential for genuine reconciliation and growth
