Emotional Exhaustion vs. Emotional Avoidance: How to Know the Difference


Listen Later

Are you really burned out — or are you emotionally disconnected and calling it burnout?

In this episode, we break down the key differences between emotional exhaustion and emotional avoidance. Most people think they're "tired," but they're actually suppressing what they feel — and that disconnect is what's draining them.

You'll learn: ✅ The psychological and neurological differences between avoidance and true burnout ✅ How to tell when you're emotionally numb vs. emotionally depleted ✅ The habits that keep you stuck in survival mode ✅ How to reconnect to your emotions in a way that feels safe, not overwhelming ✅ Practical tools to rebuild your emotional energy without shutting down

Whether you're over-functioning, numbing out, or caught in an emotional freeze, this episode will help you name what's really going on — and give you the tools to take your power back.

🎯 This is not about "pushing through." It's about coming back home to yourself
