Show Notes

Drama Therapist Arianna Wheat joins Kristie and Felicia to explore emotional numbness as a coping mechanism for when we feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or past trauma. Arianna believes healing begins with connection—to one’s past, present, and with someone who sees them fully.

Some takeaways:

  • How to regulate your nervous system
  • Hyper and hypo-arousal: what are they and why are they relevant?
  • Challenging the “shoulds”
  • Radical acceptance of your emotions
