When Being Attracted to Someone Catches You Off Guard

Dose of Depth

About this episode

Ever find yourself attracted to someone you shouldn’t be attracted to
especially when you’re already in a relationship?

What if that attraction isn’t a threat…but a message?

In this short video, I explore how attraction often points to something your unconscious is asking you to develop, reclaim, or live more fully. Instead of acting on attraction or suppressing it, I suggest lingering with it and listening for what wants to be known.

I share personal examples of being intensely drawn to people who were unavailable and how, once I understood what I was really attracted to, their literal pull dissolved. What remained was desire for essence: creativity, authority, justice, devotion to purpose.

When we pursue those qualities in our own lives, attraction often transforms.

Attraction doesn’t always ask for action.

Sometimes it asks for integration.
