Ever wondered why you feel nothing when you should feel everything? This episode dives into the hidden world of emotional numbness, not as a flaw, but as a coded response your nervous system creates when life becomes too much.

We’ll explore what happens in the brain and body during numbness, how modern culture silently rewards emotional shutdown, and why “feeling nothing” is often a sign of having felt too much.

From trauma research to philosophy, from freeze responses to the blurred line between detachment and dissociation, this is a journey into the silence we rarely admit we live with.

Most importantly, you’ll hear unusual practices for working with numbness: micro-dosing feelings, using art or ritual to “borrow” emotions, and reframing numbness as a space of meaning instead of emptiness.

👉 If you’ve ever asked yourself “Why do I feel nothing?” - this episode is for you.
