Congruent with Lisa Carpenter | The truth beneath success. Why it never feels like enough.

ENCORE: It’s Okay to Not Be Okay


Listen Later

In this episode, we revisit the raw and unfiltered episode 145 of the Full Frontal Living™ Podcast. Lisa Carpenter opens the door to a conversation most high-achievers avoid: what it really means to not be okay—and how to recognize when your so-called “coping” is just numbing in disguise.

Whether you’re caught in perfectionism, scrolling your feelings away, pouring another glass of wine to take the edge off, or chasing one more accomplishment that still doesn’t feel like “enough,” Lisa’s here to call it out with love.

This episode is a deep dive into emotional fluency, nervous system regulation, and how to build true resiliency when your usual go-to is to power through.

 

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why saying “I’m fine” is usually a lie—and how to tell when you're not okay
  • How overworking, people-pleasing, and emotional shutdown are socially rewarded forms of numbing
  • The difference between nurturing vs. numbing behaviors (even “healthy” ones like exercise)
  • How to release stuck emotions without spiraling
  • Why your nervous system might be “redlining” even if your mind says you're okay
  • What real self-care looks like when you're burned out, exhausted, and emotionally disconnected
  •  

    Tools + Resources Mentioned:

    • Yoga Nidra + meditation for nervous system regulation
  • Emotional awareness strategies to interrupt burnout cycles
  • Tips on navigating identity loss, control patterns, and people-pleasing
  •
