Why we repeat the same relationship patterns with Louize Carroll

March 2, 2026 · 48 min

Show notes

This week on the podcast I’m joined by Psychologist and relationship whisperer Louize Carroll.


Louize works with people and couples who feel stuck - stuck in the same arguments, the same triggers, the same “We are NOT having this fight again”… and yet somehow, here we are. One of the reasons I love having her on is that she explains things so clearly, and she sparks those “Oh my God… I do that” moments. And those are gold.


We talk about why we repeat patterns in relationships, how early wounds shape the way we react in adult relationships, and why most conflict isn’t about the dishwasher, it’s about the dance we get pulled into.


Louize shares her “wounded, wild and wise” framework and how to strengthen the part of you that can pause instead of pounce.


If you're new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!
