How can I connect my WordPress account to a new email address?
-
I would like to connect my account to a new email address, completely disconnect the account from the original email I used. Also, I do not want my WordPress profile picture to be linked to my email address – how do I ensure that they are not linked. Thank you for your help. Best, Kejtlin

Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You can create one gravatar for every username account that applies to all blogs registered under the same username account and email address.

https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/There is a single email address that can be used on only one wordpress.COM username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account.
The wordpress.COM blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account at any time.

Okay so at some point the email notice was sent to change the email address on my account but it must have been deleted. Now the account show change pending so how can I cancel that change and resend? or make the change?

@timethief has already explained how to change your email address. Once you confirm the email change your profile picture will be connected to the new email in your Gravatar profile and the old address will be removed.
In future, please create your own threads instead of posting into threads created by other users.
I can see that we sent a confirmation email to the new email address 11 hours ago, at about the same time you posted here. The email shows as successfully delivered, so please check your inbox, spam folder, and any filters you might have set up at that email address.
You can also cancel a pending email change, or resend the confirmation email from the account settings page:
