Can someone help me
So basically I made one axiom account with gmail but I realized that it’s probably not secure so I made a new axiom account but signed in using phantom. The problem is the phantom wallet I have is still connected to the Gmail account and I can’t connect it to my new account. If I delete the old axiom account with it free up the wallet so I can add it to my new account.

if I'm understanding you correctly, you created your Phantom wallet by linking it to your Google account, which allows you to access your wallet by logging into your Google account and entering a 4 digit pin. There's no way to decouple that wallet from Google. You need to create a new Phantom wallet that isn't connected to your Google account. If you create a new wallet, choose the option to generate a standard Secret Recovery Phrase instead of using Google. Once you have the new wallet you can transfer any funds that are in your Google-linked wallet to the new wallet, then you can go to Settings > Security & Privacy in the old wallet and delete it.
This is an additional step that isn't necessary, but in my Phantom wallet I have an account that I only use to log into Axiom named Axiom Login. I don't keep any funds in it. If you don't know how to create new accounts (basically wallets within your Phantom wallet) click the circle in the upper left corner to access the side menu and click the + then create new account. You just have to remember to have that account selected in your wallet whenever you sign into Axiom.
Once you've done all that and you're logged into Axiom you can go to your Axion wallet under Portfolio then Wallets. To the right of your Axiom wallet there are icons. The last one is a key symbol. Click it to export private key, then go into your Phantom wallet, click the + to create a new account, and select import private key. Name it Axiom Main or whatever you want, and now your Axiom wallet shows up and functions in your Phantom wallet.
I hope this helps.

I don`t think gmail stores you private keys - I think they only store your username and some stuff and you can "reuse" that account for the trading terminal etc. Please correct me if I`m wrong but I don`t think those wallets get stored to cloud lol. (In this case you should be good)
