Episode Summary:

In my last episode, I shared the moment I realized I didn’t recognize myself anymore.

But what happens after that?

After you leave the job, the role, the relationship, the version of yourself that was built in survival?

This episode is about that in-between place—the one no one talks about.

Where everything is finally quiet… and instead of peace, you feel panic.

Where your nervous system doesn’t know how to rest, because for so long, it only knew how to survive.

If you’ve ever slowed down and felt lost instead of relieved, this one’s for you.

What You’ll Hear:

• What survival mode really feels like (and why it often goes unnoticed)
• Why stillness can feel threatening, even when it’s what you crave
• The small rituals that helped me reconnect with myself
• How I discovered nervous system + subconscious healing out of necessity
• What healing actually looks and feels like (hint: it’s not always a glow-up)

This episode is especially for you if:

• You’ve “made it out” but don’t feel better yet
• Rest feels uncomfortable, unfamiliar, or even unsafe
• You want to heal, but nothing seems to stick
• You’re craving calm, clarity, and connection — but feel stuck in the in-between
