Hi,

Avoidance isn’t laziness.
It’s a signal — a boundary your system creates when something feels emotionally expensive.

Before judgment, there is always purpose.

Avoidance protects you from:

  • disappointment

  • failure

  • exposure

  • shame

  • being seen

  • being wrong

  • being overwhelmed

Today’s Move:

Ask: “What is this avoidance trying to protect in me?”

Trace it gently:

  1. What task pulls you into avoidance?

  2. What does completing it mean to you?

  3. What part of you feels unsafe doing it?

Avoidance is never the problem.
Avoidance is the messenger.

Tomorrow, we explore the patterns you inherited — the ones you never asked for.
