Start Healing Your Attachment Style & Unlock Your Core Needs. Free for 7 Days + Bonus Course for Life! https://attachment.personaldevelopmen...

If you’re tired of feeling confused, undervalued, or “left hanging” by someone who only gives you just enough to keep you around, this video breaks down the psychology of Dismissive Avoidant breadcrumbing.

Thais Gibson explains the deeper emotional and subconscious roots of breadcrumbing within the Dismissive Avoidant attachment style, including how their childhood emotional neglect creates a comfort zone around emotional scarcity. She also reveals why people on the receiving end of breadcrumbing often feel “stuck,” and how this dynamic stems from their own learned comfort with neglect.

You’ll walk away with practical tools to recondition your subconscious comfort zone, shift limiting beliefs, rebuild your standards, and create a relationship model based on mutual nourishment rather than deprivation.

You'll learn:
✅ What breadcrumbing actually is and why it’s so common with Dismissive Avoidants
✅ How childhood emotional neglect creates an Avoidant's “breadcrumb comfort zone”
✅ Why trauma spreads through patterns, not intention
✅ How Dismissive Avoidants can stop breadcrumbing by learning to stop breadcrumbing themselves
✅ Why people who accept breadcrumbs usually have their own comfort zone of neglect
✅ How to recondition your subconscious to expect, and accept, real emotional nourishment
✅ The role of boundaries, standards, and self-worth in stopping the cycle
✅ Why identifying your needs changes your entire dating experience
