Episode 2: I’m Fine… Or Have I Just Adapted?


Listen Later

In this episode of Yafqahoo Qawlee, we take a closer look at a phrase many women say automatically:

“I’m fine.” But what if this phrase doesn’t always reflect wellbeing?

What if, in some cases, it signals long-term psychological adaptation to circumstances that no longer support emotional health?

In this episode, Dr. Areej Khataybeh explores the psychology of adaptation how it develops, why it becomes so familiar, and how many women find themselves functioning well on the outside while feeling emotionally distant on the inside

We examine the difference between adaptation and genuine wellbeing, the early signs of emotional habituation, and the five stages through which adaptation becomes a long-term pattern

This episode is an invitation to awareness, understanding, and listening to what has been quietly happening beneath the surface

The episode ends with reflective questions designed to support gentle insight without pressure or judgment

🎧 A thoughtful listen for women who feel that life is moving forward

but wonder whether “I’m fine” truly reflects how they feel
