In this episode of Off the Couch, host Dr. Greg and cohost Bryan dive into the psychology behind avoidance behaviors—why we dodge difficult conversations, take fewer risks, or shy away from our own potential. From the fear of failure to patterns shaped by upbringing and learned helplessness, they explore how avoidance can quietly sabotage personal growth.

Dr. Greg and Bryan share candid stories from their own lives, examining how avoidance took root and how they've worked to confront it. Together, they discuss how exposure, reflection, and small steps toward discomfort can lead to real change. This episode offers powerful insights for anyone ready to break free from fear-driven patterns and step into more empowered, intentional living.
