63 - INFIDELITY - The psychology of "The Other Woman" and how to avoid becoming her (+ how to heal)

The OPENHOUSE therapists discuss a user submission on someone who has been the ‘Other Woman’ for too long. She asks the team: ⇢ *HOW* did this situation happen? ⇢ How did she get so brainwashed? ⇢ What sort of man (or woman) entertains a long term affair? ⇢ Why and how does this person have so much power over her?; and ⇢ Where does she go from here? Louise and the therapists discuss: ⇢ How affairs start ⇢ The type of man or woman who are most susceptible to being ‘The Other’ ⇢ The statement ‘I can’t leave’ and what this really means ⇢ The concept of power play and adrenaline ⇢ The difference between attention & intention ⇢ The darker, shadow sides of when we accept shameful love ⇢ How to leave or end an affair and ⇢ How to avoid one happening in the first place And more. Louise also shares her own personal experience with ‘being the other’ and discusses The Thimble Analogy - the game changing therapy analogy that radically changes the way that you understand how, and why, you accept less than loving love - and how to change this. ------ HEALING HONEYS (formerly OPENHOUSE)- STREAM MORE 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Spotify 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Apple Podcasts 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on YouTube 🤍 Join Ad free listening CONNECT WITH LOUISE 💌 Connect with Louise on Instagram & TikTok 💌 Connect with Healing Honeys on Instagram 💌 Submit a question to the Healing Honeys Hotline 💌 TRASH TALKS: Submit Your Awful Dating Stories 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.
