The Real Reason Men Shut Down, Pull Away, and Go Blank.

Ever dated someone who was warm one minute… and emotionally shut down the next? In this week’s Benson Book Club, we break down Chapter 7 of The Untethered Soul - “Transcending the Tendency to Close.”
This chapter explains:
why people emotionally close off
why your ex suddenly went cold
the psychology behind emotional shutdown and avoidance
how to recognize when YOU close your heart
and how this pattern destroys connection
I also give you a step-by-step Law of Detachment routine for heartbreak that I did to get over bookman!! The exact script to record, what to listen to every night, and a clean way to detach from someone who can’t show up for you.

If you want to understand why someone pulled away… or you need help letting go fast… this episode gives you clarity, strategy, and the tools to move on.
