Listen "09. I Used to Be Emotional, Then Started to Feel “Dead Inside”"
Episode Synopsis
                            What did you think of this episode?In this deeply personal episode, Jessica shares a journey that many can relate to—the struggle between feeling too deeply and not feeling at all. After years of being the “emotional one,” she tried to shut down her feelings to cope with grief and hardship, but soon found herself feeling numb and disconnected, “dead inside.” Jessica reflects on the flawed understanding of resilience she once held—believing that resilience meant closing herself off from pain—and how that belief led her further from true healing.Through heartfelt storytelling, Jessica takes listeners through the turning points that led her back to feeling, from her experiences of numbness to the challenges of finding emotional release. She discusses the moments of breakthrough, like Sunday meltdowns and quiet sessions with music, that helped her reconnect with herself. Jessica also shares the powerful insight that true resilience is not about building walls, but rather about "feeling the bad and finding the good," as she learned from a friend.Thank you for tuning in to the Resilient Podcast!If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the show so you never miss an episode.
