Healing Honeys (formerly OPENHOUSE with Louise Rumball)

I spent my birthday bawling my eyes out on Facetime to my Mum. Welcome to my first-ever “Confession Session,” where I’m sharing why my birthday was a complete disaster — from feeling unseen and unsupported by my normally very loving boyfriend to navigating the loneliness of being 12,000km from home. I dive into the classic "it's my birthday, I can cry if I want to" vibes, exploring the psychology and biology behind why birthdays can trigger unexpected waves of emotion, pressure, expectation, and reflection, alongside inner child wounds and feelings of isolation too. If you’ve ever had a birthday that didn’t live up to the Instagram highlight reel, you’re not alone and I share my top 6 ways to make your birthday better, even if you aren’t looking forward to it. 💛 THE TRIPPY PLAYLIST: linked here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3dw5Ta4q9aqdgN3T3dcaqi?si=f784ff0ee5004898 Real talk, honest conversations, and stories that make you think—welcome to The Healing Honeys.

Do you cringe at the thought of telling your nail technician you hate your nails, or does sending your food back in a restaurant make you break into a cold sweat? Do you speak up when someone does something that makes you feel anything less than amazing, or do you find yourself thinking, “It doesn’t matter” or “I shouldn’t make a fuss”? In today’s episode, Louise explores the psychology and nervous system foundations behind why some of us stay quiet instead of speaking up. She also discusses the dangers of suppressing our voice and not expressing our truth and why your voice and experiences are one of the most powerful things about you.  Real talk, honest conversations, and stories that make you think—welcome to The Healing Honeys.

Everyone was talking about Sabrina and Steven, and today, I sit down with Steven, one of my closest friends and the star of Love Is Blind UK. We dive into what it’s really like to have your love life—and heartbreak—put on blast for the world to dissect. Steven opens up about the brutal realities of reality TV, the emotional toll of internet trolls, and the raw truth that men, too, can be left feeling shattered after breakups. He discusses his shock at the reunion, the pain of re-watching himself fall in love on TV, and why he stayed silent while others created their own versions of the story. He shares how he uses daily tools to stay calm, grounded, and mostly anxiety-free—and how he’s evolving, just like everyone else. 🤍 FOLLOW STEVEN 🤍 https://www.instagram.com/stvnsmthy/?hl=en  ✨ FREE HEALING RESOURCES: ✨  → Free 14 day trial of Daily Devotion (Somatic Healing): HERE → Free Podcast Pathways: HERE ------ 🤍 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 Episode Sponsors: 🧡 This episode description contains affiliate links that allow you to find the items mentioned in this episode and support the podcast at no cost to you.

Honey, I’m home! In this episode, I'm catching you up on all my life updates – where I’ve been, why the podcast has been so MIA, and what’s been happening behind the scenes (+ when you can expect us back on a regular schedule!). From 5 weeks living out of a suitcase, major life location decisions, contraction, expansion, questioning if this is my ‘flop era,’ and podcast changes too, I’ve got so much to share. Plus, I dive into my first-ever confidence crisis that caught me off guard and led to the overwhelming pressure I felt to get filler and Botox. This eventually sparked the birth of my newest FREE challenge to help us all navigate through these confidence crises. So, grab your headphones, get outside on your hot girl walk, and get comfy for this chat – I’ve missed you! ✨ FREE HEALING RESOURCES: ✨  → Free 14 day trial of Daily Devotion (Somatic Healing): HERE → Free Podcast Pathways: HERE ------ 🤍 FOLLOW LOUISE / HEALING HONEYS 🤍 https://www.youtube.com/@healinghoneys https://www.instagram.com/iamlouiserumball/ https://www.tiktok.com/@healinghoneys_ https://www.instagram.com/healinghoneys/ 💌 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.

‘I want him to pay but I also want to be an independent woman’. Relate? Then this episode is for you. Louise sits down with Tom Stroud, one of the breakout stars from Love Is Blind UK.

The pair get into: Tom's relationship with Maria: a deep dive into the emotional highs and lows that ultimately led them to choose not to marry. How long should you wait to sleep together? A discussion around safety and emotional intimacy Should men always pay on the first date? Why ambitious women are often labeled as ‘masculine,’ yet still seen as ‘emotional’ or ‘hysterical.’ How the provider role you experienced in childhood influences the provider you become in adulthood. The impact of childhood financial trauma on adult romantic relationships. Is it time to challenge rigid gender roles and stereotypes, and have the 'ugly conversations' we’ve been avoiding? Men who go to therapy (HALLELUJAH!) and more. ------ 🤍 FOLLOW LOUISE / HEALING HONEYS 🤍 https://www.youtube.com/@healinghoneys https://www.instagram.com/iamlouiserumball/ https://www.tiktok.com/@healinghoneys_ https://www.instagram.com/healinghoneys/ 💌 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.

It’s been a hot minute…. Because I disappeared. And things have been dark AF. Today, I’m opening up about why I disappeared, took an unexpected hiatus from the pod for the first time in 2.5 years and I share about the intense, emotional journey I’ve been on. We’ll rewind to when I was in the best shape of my life—mentally, physically, and spiritually—and how everything took a sudden turn, leading me into adrenal fatigue, burnout, loneliness, and a deep freeze state of depression in my nervous system.  I also chat my best friend being on Love Is Blind, my travel plans and more. ⭐ [REDEEM YOUR FREE TRIAL] The SOMATIC GLOW UP with Louise Rumball ⭐https://www.thisisopenhouse.com/daily-devotion With our Daily Devotion monthly membership, complete just one somatic healing practice a day to revolutionize your relationship with yourself and others.
