The Numbing Isn’t the Problem—It’s the Signal from Your Soul

The Numbing Isn’t the Problem. It’s the Signal from Your Soul

You don’t reach for the wine, the carbs, or your calendar because you’re weak.
You do it because your body has no other safe place to land.

Numbing isn’t your failure.
It’s your signal.
It’s your soul whispering.

“Please, just feel me. I’m not here to hurt you. I’m here to free you.”

Seen By Science

According to research published in the Journal of Affective Disorders, high-functioning depression often goes unrecognized in women who appear outwardly successful but internally feel emotionally disconnected, exhausted, and numb (Patel et al., 2020).
We look like we’ve got it all together.
But inside? We’re unravelling in slow motion.

3 Things Numbing Might Be Trying to Tell You:

• I’m carrying emotions I never processed.

• I’ve been pretending I’m okay too long.

• I don’t know what safe support looks like.

  These aren’t signs of weakness.
  They’re evidence of survival.

What Helped Me Shift

I didn’t heal through hustle.
I healed through honesty.
Small moments of truth.
Soft invitations to feel.

And that’s exactly what we’re exploring in my From Invisible to I AM™ voice memo series.

We’re going deep into emotional detox—what it means to feel safely, without judgment.
To stop running from ourselves.
And to reclaim softness as strength.

If you’ve been avoiding your feelings with food, wine, busyness, or overachievement—
This isn’t your flaw.
It’s your soul’s signal.
And I’ve got something just for you.

🎙️ I recorded a voice memo series for women like us—women who look fine but feel invisible.
It’s $1.
It’s raw.
It’s real.
And you’ll feel seen in the first 30 seconds.
