Healing Honeys with Louise Rumball

The attachment style - fearful avoidant, also known as ‘disorganized’ is often overlooked. Do you feel like you want to be close to people and want their love, but when you get close, you feel like it is a dangerous space to be in? Maybe you push people away before they can push you away, but deep down want to be and feel loved? Did you experience deeply stressful, neglectful or abusive situations as a child that make you feel that love is not only scary, but sometimes actually dangerous? Do you expect or fear people might hurt you? If this is you, or it sounds like your partner, this episode is for you. Louise Rumball & clinical psychologist Dr Tari Mack discuss: ⇢What is a disorganized attachment style ⇢How did it form in childhood ⇢What are disorganized people actually scared of (you might be surprised!) ⇢What’s the difference between feeling fearful and avoidant in life or dating and actually having a disorganized attachment style? Plus, we discuss what happens & what to do when a partner is not working on their attachment style. Louise asks Dr Tari: ⇢How patient should you be with someone’s attachment style? ⇢Is an attachment style enough to break up with someone for? ⇢What to do if someone’s attachment style is bringing you unhappiness? ⇢And, ultimately, how conflict can actually bring you closer together if you learn to regulate your attachment style And more! Louise also shares her own experiences with a ‘disorganized’ ex boyfriend and how one moment changed the entire relationship.

Ever dated an avoidant man or woman? They disappear when conflict starts or a conversation heats up? You feel like you get close to them, but never quite fully there? Maybe you are one yourself and other people feel ‘too needy, too much’, or that being independent and alone is safer and less hectic. Maybe you don't see the point in talking about your feelings, don't like to depend on others for help, think relationships are a lot of work or just prefer 'being mysterious?' If this is you, or it sounds like your partner, this episode is for you.

Waiting for someone who is just not ready to date you, to be ready to date you? I ask my therapist, should we wait for them to start their healing, get over their ex, let their busy period at work calm down for them to step up to the plate - or should we just move on? Should we entertain them as a friend? Should we stay in contact? Should we keep things going until they see how good you two could be together? Louise and Dr Tari explore ⇢ The clear, conscious and subconscious ways that people say they ‘can’t show up for you right now’ ⇢ What to do if someone is acting nonchalant or is expressly communicating that they don’t want a relationship but they like you; ⇢ How to ask someone what they want in a relationship (and when you should do so); ⇢ How and why people use sex and hook ups to avoid emotional vulnerability and intimacy. Louise also asks shares: ⇢ Her personal story around how meeting someone who ticks ‘most of the boxes’ can lead you on a wild goose chase of waiting for them to be ready; ⇢ Her friends recent story, and whether you can really be friends with someone you have slept with; ⇢ Her experience of why not all men’s word can be trusted.

Louise and Tari discuss why they happen, why they hurt, why they’re inevitable, how to handle them when they change or break down, how to learn from them and, ultimately, how to grow and be happier after them. Louise Rumball also goes deeper into three of her own personal friend breakdowns: ⇢ 1. Her childhood best friend & how she dreamt about her for years & what this meant; ⇢ 2. A good friend in her 20s who Louise bonded with over their equally disastrous and toxic relationships - and whose friendship then slowly broke down when they didn’t bond over that any more; ⇢ 3. Her most recent friendship breakdown - with someone who she loves and cares about but feels is incompatible with her at this point in her life. Dr Tari and Louise also discuss: ⇢ How to self-reflect on your friendships using the Wedding Cake analogy; ⇢ How to broach a friendship that isn't feeling good; ⇢ How to communicate with yourself and others; and ⇢ How to lean into the changes of friendships to your benefit, rather than them hurting you.

We get into the topic that everyone is talking about - the crazy Netflix documentary - The Tinder Swindler, The so-called Tinder Swindler is Shimon Hayut (aka 'Simon Leviev'), a convicted fraudster born in Israel. He used dating apps to meet multiple women, then got them to take out loans and credit in their names, ultimately leaving them holding the bills when he would later disappear - but not before he had spent ALL of the money on an insanely lavish lifestyle that he used to impress OTHER women. In today’s episode, Louise & Dr Tari break down: ⇢ The psychology of Attachment Hunger - something that starts in childhood when we don’t get the appropriate bonding and nurturing form our parent figures, and then later shows up in adult life as attaching too quickly to romantic partners; ⇢ The reason that so many people today ignore red flags; ⇢ Why sexual validation and attention are not the same as healthy loving care; ⇢ The importance of knowing ourselves before we can really know another; and ⇢ Why some people only attract superficial relationships. Louise Rumball & Dr Tari Mack also break down the specifics of the situation and look at; ⇢ Immediate red flags that should have been picked up on in the episode; ⇢ How to navigate dating apps when meeting someone new (+ the questions you have to ask); ⇢ How to actually get to know someone; ⇢ How to keep an eye out for someone like the Tinder Swindler so you can avoid at all costs; and ⇢ The importance of boundaries and time to attach when you meet someone new.

Today, in Episode 22, Dr Tari Mack is back from holiday & we are looking at the flip side of getting ghosted. We ask Dr Tari: ⇢ Why do people ghost? ⇢ How this can tie back to more significant personality traits, like narcissism and sociopathy; ⇢ But how it can also tie back to our experience in childhood and what we were taught by our caregivers about conflict; and ⇢ What ghosting teaches us about another person. Louise also shares her personal experience of how she used to ghost people when she was younger, but also shares: ⇢ How she now understands why she used to act the way she did; ⇢ How her behaviour has changed since going to therapy; and ⇢ Her tips and tricks on how not to ghost people. We also share live examples of messages that Louise has sent to people when she has needed to communicate that she wasn’t into things, rather than ghosting, and get Dr Tari’s feedback.

Louise gets into a solo episode discussing all things Rihanna & A$AP Rocky and the news that they are having a baby! In this episode, Louise looks at ‘Rihanna energy’ and her break up from Hassan Jameel at 31, an age when many people would feel pressurised by society to stay in their relationship or make it work, rather than the fear of being ‘thirty and single’.

Louise also shares her own personal dating stories, particularly: ⇢ Her experience of dating her very own Chris Brown and what she learnt;⠀ ⇢ What watching her friends settle down and have babies has taught her about what she wants in a relationship; ⇢ Her top 6 tips to embracing being single in your 30s + 40s; ⇢ And why you need to date ‘smart’, ‘fast’ and ‘with intention’ as you get older.

Hey guys, Louise here returning with a solo episode of OPENHOUSE. In Episode 20, we are talking all things GHOSTING and what to do when you are on the receiving end of getting ghosted by someone you are dating. So, if you couldn’t tell, I got f**king ghosted and I've got stuff to say. I’m not even embarrassed about it, because it is so normal in today's dating pool, but what I am going to do is share with you what I learnt about me, about the person that ghost me - and so much more, during this experience of getting ghosted. In today's episode we go through: *What is schema chemistry; *My most recent ghosting story and why I should have seen the red flags from the start; *The psychology of ghosting and the chemical and biological impacts it has on you *Why ghosting makes you feel like you're going crazy *How ghosting makes other people feel (we asked!) *A 9 step, therapist backed plan to getting over ghosting; and *How you can use ghosting to your advantage. And so, ghosting happens, and it’s part of modern dating today but that doesn’t make it ok. And it shouldn’t be ok. And it shouldn’t be normalised - because we need to learn to develop our communication skills so that we can handle healthy conflict and uncomfortable situations and communication. If you are hurting, I hope this episode provides some respite - and a couple of laughs.

In this OPEN(HEART) episode of the OPENHOUSE Podcast we discuss all things Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker & their big love. We look at Kourtney’s evolution from someone who was once cold, boundaried, not very emotional and fairly private into someone who can’t stop expressing her love outwardly for her partner. We discuss whether this is coming from a place of true happiness, or whether there is something more to it. And we also ask - what happens when this intense lust, love and excitement slowly starts to die down over time? Who will they be then? Louise Rumball & Dr. Tari Mack look at the psychology behind what happens when the honeymoon phase ends and dive into: ⇢ What does a healthy long term relationship like?; ⇢ What to do after the honeymoon phase ends; and ⇢ Therapist tips on how to keep the relationship alive.

We look at ‘relationship jumping’ through the vehicle of JLo with clinical psychologist Dr. Tari who has appeared on Access Hollywood recently talking about this and even given relationship advice to JLo herself.

In this OPEN(HEART) episode of the OPENHOUSE Podcast, we take a look at the recent news of Zayn Malik & Gigi Hadid and their break up that very few saw coming. We discuss all things tumultuous relationships, why we keep them a secret and what to do if you find yourself in this situation - whether you are dating someone, in a relationship with them, or feel like it’s not possible to leave. We dive into out of bounds behaviour, the cycle of bad behaviour, whether a leopard can actually change their spots and also take you through lots of actionable tips and tricks and communication soundbytes on how to move forward out of these situations if you are experiencing them yourself. We recap on unconscious attraction and Louise shares her own personal experiences with an ex-boyfriend who re-appeared and certainly did not change his spots. She also shares her experiences of red flags, when she should have walked away and didn’t - as well as her more recent experience of working with a subconscious therapist which has taught her that children really do pick up what is going on with parents. Louise Rumball & Dr Tari Mack also go deeper into: ⇢ Behaviours that are out of bounds and how these can be normalised / unrecognisable by us if we’ve witnessed them in relationships around us growing up; ⇢ Why it’s hard for people to change unless they are fully dedicated to it; and ⇢ How DENIAL / EMBARRASSMENT / SHAME leads us to silence these out of bound behaviours and what to do when we find that we’re doing that. Louise also shares her own personal dating stories, particularly: ⇢ An ex-boyfriend who reappeared last week; ⇢ Seeing red flags early on but only recognising them with hindsight; and ⇢ Experience of working with a subconscious therapist - looking at the environment in which she was conceived. And, finally, they discuss all things having a temper - how to regulate it, how to work on it, and how to take responsibility for it.

In this OPEN(HEART) episode of the OPENHOUSE Podcast, off the back of Episode 14 discussing all things Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s new engagement, today we look at Scott - discussing all things breakups as we shine a light on what we know Scott Disick might be feeling. We dive into what to do when you feel like someone has got away, the different stages of a breakup and how to truly move through the relationships that we think we can never get over. As Dr. Tari says, “breakups are the catalyst for the biggest chapters of healing,” leading us to explore why it’s important to look inward and why the feelings surrounding a breakup could go much deeper than the breakup itself. We discuss all things emotional wounds, including the abandonment and defectiveness wound - with Louise sharing her own experiences about what she learnt about her own break up. We look at the psychology behind when we genuinely think that that person we are not with is the one and dive into: ⇢ Why heartbreak can be worse than grieving the loss of somebody who died; ⇢ Dr. Tari’s insight into why, if there’s been a breakup, that’s a clear indication that they are not your person; ⇢ The psychology behind connection and closure - and why you do NOT need it in the way you think you do; and ⇢ How to handle unhealthy coping mechanisms and why it’s important to stay in our power during a break up. Louise Rumball & Dr Tari Mack also go deeper into: ⇢ Scott choosing people that are at the same emotional maturity level as him; ⇢ The different stages of a break up; and ⇢ Why a relationship is never about the other person. Louise also shares her own personal dating stories, particularly: ⇢ Her last breakup; and ⇢ Her healing journey post breakup and what she’s most proud of.

In this OPEN(HEART) episode of the OPENHOUSE Podcast, we discuss this week’s BIG celebrity news - the announcement that Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are engaged. We dive into Kourtney finding her person later in life, and how her previous relationship with Scott taught her what she didn’t want / need in her future relationships. We explore the reason it’s important to do our own internal work in order to level up into a safer, more stable kind of relationship and why, as women, we shouldn’t feel pressured to find the perfect partner, and instead should focus on our own alignment. We look at the psychology behind why many of us are more likely to find our person later in life and dive into: ⇢ Dr. Tari’s thoughts on the people that are mourning over Kourtney & Scott’s relationship; ⇢ How Kourtney’s relationship with Scott prepared her to be in a healthier relationship with Travis; and ⇢ Why we need to choose people who grow and change with us. Louise Rumball & Dr Tari Mack also go deeper into: ⇢ Why, when we haven’t done the work to regulate ourselves, that we will be attracted to relationships that are chaotic; ⇢ How feeling safe with your person can lead to a more sexual and passionate relationship; and ⇢ Discuss why you don’t have to actively look for your partner. Louise also shares her own personal dating stories, particularly: ⇢ Why her past relationships have taught her what she wants or does not want moving forward; and ⇢ Why she has 0% panic or fear of finding a partner, settling down or having children.

In this episode, Louise & Tari go deep into the recent Teddy & Faye argument that recently blew up on Love Island and use it as a vehicle to discuss conflict and toxic conflict, what does it mean when we get triggered, where and who do we learn our anger responses from, and is anger self-sabotage or does it hold the key to something deeper? Dr Tari also takes the pair through who was gaslighting who in this situation, who should have walked away; and whether or not she would advise the two to repair their relationship. ⠀ They also look at the biology of anger, what healthy conflict means; and the four 'horseman' - the four communication and conflict errors that have been statistically proven to be most likely to lead to divorce and relationship breakdown.

When my recent break up happened, it hit me like a truck and I went into a total tailspin of panic, sadness, fear, distress and desperation. Breakups are hard enough in normal, day to day life but there is something about going through any kind of break up during a global pandemic that makes this event even worse. In this episode, I share the top 10 things that I have learnt from therapy around break ups and how they have helped me so far. This is the episode that I wish someone had given me before everything happened. I'm bringing the therapy to you. This episode covers: ⇢ the things you NEED to know when you enter into break up territory; ⇢ why our bodies and minds react so severely to rejection of any kind; ⇢ how MRI scanners will show that you're not too different from a drug addict going cold turkey; ⇢ how understanding the concepts of attachment, love and fear cycle will help you to be ok with what is happening; ⇢ how neural affirmations and self-care can help to calm your nervous system and re-wire your brain; ⇢ the psychology behind 'out of sight and out of mind', and what to do with your memories together; and ⇢ how to stop romanticising your past relationship and objectively understand the WHY. My two favourite parts of the episode include: ⇢ how understanding your - and your ex's - personality style and attachment style will help you to understand why you both might be reacting differently in the wake of a break up; and ⠀ ⇢ what closure really means (and it’s really not what you think!). If you yourself are struggling, or you know someone that is, please do seek professional help. ⠀ If this is not possible, then I hope that you digest this episode and apply some of it to your own situation so you can move forward. Whatever you are going through - my heart goes out to you - I would not wish heartbreak on anyone. I trust that you can heal. I hope you believe that too.

Welcome to our second live therapy workshop in partnership with FORA London, London’s tailored workspace that provides its residents with spaces to be happy and healthy to deliver their best work. This workshop - ‘how to manage the uncertainty of a Corona Christmas’ is a pre-record of a live therapy workshop where Louise & clinical psychologist Dr Helene Laurent-Oliver work through a vast variety of topics that often come up in therapy in the winter months, whilst going deeper on specific topics such as the winter blues, seasonal triggers, family boundary setting, loneliness, excess around Christmas, and more. The workshop also discusses management techniques to make this Christmas a little less stressful than those gone before. The free worksheet for this session is available at https://www.thisisopenhouse.com/episodes/coronachristmas To start the workshop, Dr Helene explores Louise’s historical connection with the winter blues and how her winters previously have been very different to this one. Dr Helene discusses Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), explore whether Louise has ever experienced it, and the two discuss the value of a morning routine and the small daily activities that Louise feels are contributing to her good mental and physical health this year. The two work through a morning routine exercise and Dr Helene also demonstrates a ‘Locus of Control’ exercise to help us better manage anxiety, uncertainty and catastrophising. Louise & Dr Helene then explore how lockdown has impacted Louise and how she is feeling - connected, disconnected, reliant on others, independent?. They discuss friendships, relationships and how, for many, loneliness is rearing its head. The pair also explore a trigger and boundary setting exercise to help you best manage any familial situation this Christmas when many personalities all come under one route. To finish the workshop, Louise & Dr Helene explore how the pandemic this year has made many people feel pressurised that they have not yielded any progress or moved forward. The pair go through a positive and compassionate reflection exercise on the year gone by and look towards 2021. This is led by Louise and her own experiences throughout 2020. Throughout the session, Louise & Dr Helene also take live therapy questions and help viewers at home with any questions that they might have. ------ 🤍 FOLLOW LOUISE / HEALING HONEYS 🤍 https://www.youtube.com/@healinghoneys https://www.instagram.com/iamlouiserumball/ https://www.tiktok.com/@healinghoneys_ https://www.instagram.com/healinghoneys/ HEAL WITH LOUISE ✨ 7 Day Somatic Healing Trial: Daily Devotion ✨ Therapy + Healing PDFs: Therapy Shop ✨ 7 Day Free Confidence Queen Overhaul: Waitlist Sign Up ✨ There She Glows: 12 Week Life Transformation: Waitlist Sign Up Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Louise and Dr Helene explore Louise’s coping mechanisms over the past few years and how an intense life of hard work and constant pressure, often led to her partying harder than she had wanted to on the weekends. Whilst initially seemingly innocent, Louise started to understand that whilst she didn’t classify herself as having a traditional ‘problem’ with alcohol, her relationship with alcohol wasn’t as healthy as it could be, often ending up in awful hangovers, bad decisions and added stress when Monday came around. Louise and Dr Helene explore why, unfortunately, Louise had to come head to head with a traumatising event one evening whilst intoxicated before she decided that it was time to face up to her relationship with alcohol and sleeping pills. Since that evening, Louise embarked on a journey of sobriety and it has now been 2 years and 8 months since she decided to stop drinking. Until now, Louise has never shared this personal story, but is today sharing in the hope that it may be comforting for others who have been in a similar situation, and potentially inspiring for those who are sober curious and interested in exploring a life without alcohol and drugs. Louise & Dr Helene also discuss how she went sober, whether she did it with professional help or on her own, and how she has managed to stay sober in a world full of party animals and normalisation of drinking. This episode is for anyone - the people who love drinking but hate the hangovers, the people who end up making bad decisions and wish they could stop but don’t know how, those who self medicate with alcohol and drugs to distract from reality, and those who would just be interested in knowing what it might be like to not drink for a day, week or month.

In today’s live therapy session Dr Helene and I explore what it means to be a perfectionist. For me, I have never classified myself as one - I always thought that I was too ‘much’ to be a perfectionist. I wasn’t super tidy, nor the perfect homemaker, the perfect partner or the perfect daughter, and I always had so much on my plate, that I never thought this term was right for me. However, what came out of Episode 3 was that perfectionism has shown up in my life in so many of ways but mainly as a constant and relentless drive and pressure to be more successful, to be in better shape and to achieve more and keep up with those around me. The underlying driver of perfectionism is the feeling that you have to be MORE of something to be more worthy, more lovable or more valuable. In this episode, we go deeper and explore why this is - how it ties back to my family experience, school and university experiences and early career milestones, as well as how it has mainly shown up in my relationship with my career and my body in adulthood. We also touch upon my relationship with men and ageing. In today’s society, we so often are left feeling just not good enough in comparison to those around us and the shiny lives of others on social media - so I love how we are able to run through the impact social media also has on those who have a tendency to feel ‘less than’. So, this is OPENHOUSE. Our goal is to normalise these conversations so together, we can be happier. Everyone is invited and I’m so glad you turned up.

This one is a little different to our usual pre-recorded podcast episodes and it is a live-streamed therapy workshop where we explore how childhood impacts your development into adulthood. This episode includes an at-home worksheet booklet for you to work through as we go through the session. If you want to join into the session, please head to http://www.thisisopenhouse.com/episodes/episode-3- to get yours! The importance of childhood experiences cannot be underestimated. Seemingly small events in childhood can sometimes have more significance than major events in adulthood and hugely impact the way we develop. The situations that we grow up in become our baseline normal and we form ideas about how life should be and how others should act from this perspective. Many are not always aware of this template that has been built from a young age. Should we experience stressful situations as a child, we also may develop unhelpful coping mechanisms that can endure long into adulthood and our adult relationships. What did you learn from your family? ⇢ What is an attachment style and how do they impact our connection with those around us? ⇢ How to work out our attachment style with those closest to us. Are you secure, anxious, avoidant, or disorganised? How does this differ across family members? ⇢ What is self esteem, how is self esteem built in childhood and how does it change into adulthood? ⇢ What are love languages and how can you most effectively manage your relationships in order to help them flourish by understanding these? We also run through a number of different analogies - including the Oil Rig analogy - to best understand how you can bolster your self esteem to support you as you grow from childhood, into adolescence and then into adulthood, as well as answering live questions along the way. ------ 🤍 FOLLOW LOUISE / HEALING HONEYS 🤍 https://www.youtube.com/@healinghoneys https://www.instagram.com/iamlouiserumball/ https://www.tiktok.com/@healinghoneys_ https://www.instagram.com/healinghoneys/ HEAL WITH LOUISE ✨ 7 Day Somatic Healing Trial: Daily Devotion ✨ Therapy + Healing PDFs: Therapy Shop ✨ 7 Day Free Confidence Queen Overhaul: Waitlist Sign Up ✨ There She Glows: 12 Week Life Transformation: Waitlist Sign Up Learn more about your ad choices.

Having gone through a couple of months of therapy already, I mention to Dr Helene that I wonder if this session may be more structured and controlled. She queries what the need for control and structure means to me? We explore my biggest regret and how trauma can cause lasting effects on development into adulthood. The brain does not fully develop until around the age of 25, so often, the decisions that we make before that age in response to trauma are immature and irrational. Why does memory loss often occur around traumatic events? What kind of lasting effects can repression of memories cause later in life? How did “brushing it under the rug,” so-to-speak, contribute to my physical and mental pain? The need to belong and to feel accepted has been long programmed into our biological code, and Dr. Helene and I examine how the desire to feel accepted and how the fear of being an outcast led to destructive behavior at University after my traumatic experience. We also explore how social media can play a tremendous role in how we believe others should perceive us. For me, there is the “online” Louise and the “offline” Louise, and I’m conflicted with my need for perfection and control that is in direct conflict with my desire to be “real” on social media and in life.

Hi friends! Louise here introducing my first ever solo episode of Openhouse - a fresh, fun and real podcast that explores the amazing impact that therapy and human connection can have on all areas of our lives. In this intro episode, I’m going to introduce you to who I am and tell you a little more about the journey I have been on throughout life so far. From childhood to adolescence, through university and into adulthood, this episode will give you some background context of my life and how I got to where I am today, as well as why I decided to start this podcast. From good and bad relationships, to career development, perfectionism, trauma, substance abuse and subsequent sobriety, this episode is the first one in which I start to peel back the layers into who I am, and why I am this way. With 1 in 4 people being diagnosed with a mental health disorder in their lifetime, we need to pick up the pace on the mental health discussion and I want to help make a change by getting us talking. In Series 1 of Openhouse, Dr Helene Laurent-Oliver will guide me through a series of personal therapy sessions. Together, we plan to explore all aspects of my life and EVERYTHING is up for discussion! Dr Helene is a Clinical Psychologist who trained at Oxford University and Royal Holloway University of London - she is amazing - we are so excited to start this podcast and we hope you join us for the ride. We live in a society where so much is left unsaid and we so often suppress, avoid, and distract ourselves from the things that truly need our attention. Openhouse is here to foster open and honest communication along this journey we call life, whilst providing you with a space to self-reflect, learn and grow. Everyone is invited - and I’m so glad you turned up. Real talk, honest conversations, and stories that make you think—welcome to The Healing Honeys.
