Most people think depression means shutting down completely, but the truth is, some of the strongest, most high-achieving people you know are battling functional depression—and you’d never even know it.
They show up. They handle business. They smile when they have to. But inside? They feel empty, exhausted, and disconnected from life. If that’s you, this episode is for you.
In this raw and real conversation, I’m breaking down:
What functional depression really is and why it’s so hard to recognize
The silent costs of ignoring it—your health, your happiness, your relationships, and your purpose
Why high-achievers and “strong” people struggle with this the most
How to break free, protect your peace, and start living again
If you feel like you’re surviving but not really living, this episode is the wake-up call you need. You are not alone in this. And you don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay when you’re not.
Listen now, and if this episode hits home, share it with someone who needs it.
It’s time to stop just existing. It’s time to start living.
