194 - Understanding Love, Lust + Limerence

It always starts out so good, right? The butterflies, the excitement, the electric pull. But what happens next? In this episode, Louise takes you on a deep dive into the psychology and biology of love—from the euphoric highs of initial lust and those heart-racing fanny flutters to the more grounded, regulated, and lasting stages of falling and being in love (yes, there’s a difference!) and then falling out of love. She’s breaking down every stage of the love cycle, exploring attachment, hormones, and subconscious patterns that shape our relationships. If you’re currently obsessing over someone new or wondering ‘Is this still working for me?’, this episode is for you so you can get clear on all stages of the love cycle. 🤍 FOLLOW LOUISE / HEALING HONEYS 🤍 https://www.youtube.com/@healinghoneys  https://www.instagram.com/iamlouiserumball/ https://www.tiktok.com/@healinghoneys_  https://www.instagram.com/healinghoneys/ 🎵 RELATED EPISODES 🎵 → Episode 160 - Limerence (like really, really obsessed) SPOTIFY and APPLE PODCASTS  → Episode 107 - Limerence, Fantasy Bonding and Sex Addiction SPOTIFY and APPLE PODCASTS  → Episode 30 - The Psychology of Pacing and Exploring Slow Grow v.
