Authentically ADHD – ADHD, Alexithymia, and Anhedonia: Understanding Emotions and MotivationHello and welcome to Authentically ADHD! I'm Carmen, your host. Today, we're diving into a topic that might hit very close to home for a lot of us: the confusing intersection of ADHD, alexithymia, and anhedonia. Now, those are some big, clinical-sounding words – but don't worry. We're going to break them down in plain language and talk about how they can overlap in real life. If you've ever thought, “Why can't I figure out what I'm feeling?” or “Why don't I enjoy things the way I used to?”, or if you find yourself emotionally drained after a long day of masking your ADHD traits, then this episode is for you.In this 25–30 minute journey, we'll mix a bit of neuroscience (in a friendly, non-intimidating way) with personal storytelling. I'll share some of my own experiences, and we'll explore what research says about why these experiences happen. By the end, you'll have a clearer understanding of what ADHD, alexithymia, and anhedonia really mean, why they often go hand-in-hand (especially in neurodivergent folks like us), and what we can do to cope and thrive. We'll also bust some common myths and misunderstandings – including why these issues often get overlooked or dismissed, especially in women and people diagnosed later in life. And as always, we'll wrap up with strategies and a big dose of validation and hope. So, get comfy (or start that task you've been putting off and take us along!), and let's get started.Understanding ADHD, Alexithymia, and AnhedoniaBefore we delve into how these things intersect, let's clearly define each of these terms. They each describe a different piece of the puzzle of our emotional and mental life. Understanding what they are will help us see how they connect. In a nutshell:ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder): ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent patterns of inattention (difficulty focusing, forgetfulness), hyperactivity (restlessness, fidgeting), and impulsivity (acting without thinking) that interfere with daily functioningneurolaunch.com. In adults, ADHD can look like struggling to stay organized, constantly losing your keys, jumping from one idea to another, or even feeling emotionally impulsive. It's not just “kids being hyper” – it's a lifelong brain-based condition affecting how we concentrate, manage time, and regulate behavior and emotions.Alexithymia: Alexithymia is not a disorder but a personality trait or profile, often described as having difficulty identifying and describing your emotionsneurodivergentinsights.com. The word literally means “without words for emotion.” If you have alexithymia, you might feel strong emotions physically (like a racing heart or a knot in your stomach) but struggle to pinpoint what the emotion is (is it anxiety? anger? hunger?) and find words to express it. Alexithymia exists on a spectrum – some people have mild trouble with emotions, others have it to a more severe degreeneurodivergentinsights.com. It frequently co-occurs with neurodivergent conditions; in fact, research suggests that a significant subset of people with ADHD (estimates range from about 20% to over 40%) also have alexithymianeurodivergentinsights.combhcsmt.com. So, if you have ADHD and you've always felt “out of touch” with your emotions, alexithymia might be a concept that resonates with you.Anhedonia: Anhedonia means an inability or reduced ability to experience pleasure. It's like the volume knob for enjoyment is turned way down. People with anhedonia struggle to feel joy or interest in activities that used to be fun or rewardingneurolaunch.com. This term is often discussed in the context of depression (since losing pleasure is a core symptom of depressive episodes), but it's not exclusive to depression. As we'll explore, anhedonia can also show up in ADHD. If you find that hobbies, socializing, or accomplishments don't light you up the way they do for others (or the way they once did for you), anhedonia could be at play. It can feel like emotional flatness or being chronically “uninspired” – you want to want things, but the feeling isn't there.Each of these three – ADHD, alexithymia, and anhedonia – is distinct. ADHD is an officially recognized neurodevelopmental condition affecting attention and self-regulation. Alexithymia is a descriptive trait about emotional awareness. Anhedonia is a symptom state of not experiencing pleasure. Yet, despite their differences, these experiences often overlap and tangle together, especially for neurodivergent individuals. When someone has ADHD, they're more likely to also experience traits of alexithymianeurodivergentinsights.com, and they may be more prone to anhedonia or “low hedonic tone” (low baseline ability to feel reward) than the general populationen.wikipedia.org. Why is that? Let's dig into the brain science to find out.The Neuroscience Behind the OverlapSo, why do ADHD, alexithymia, and anhedonia so often form a trio? To answer that, we need to talk about how our brains process emotions and rewards. Don't worry – we'll keep it conversational. Imagine your brain as an orchestra: different sections handle different parts of the music. When everything's in tune, you get a harmonious experience of life – you feel emotions, you find joy in activities, you focus when you need to. With ADHD, alexithymia, and anhedonia, some sections of the orchestra are either playing off-key or playing too quietly to hear.One key player here is dopamine, a neurotransmitter often nicknamed the “reward chemical.” Dopamine is heavily involved in motivation, pleasure, and attention – basically the brain's way of saying “Hey, this is important/fun, focus on this!” In ADHD brains, dopamine signaling doesn't work typically; it can be underactive or dysregulatedneurolaunch.comneurolaunch.com. Think of it like a weak Wi-Fi signal in the reward circuits of the brain – messages about reward and pleasure just aren't getting through fast or strong enough. Because of this, everyday tasks might not feel as rewarding to someone with ADHD as they do to someone without ADHD. Science actually shows that ADHD-related dopamine impairments can dysregulate the brain's reward processing and lead to anhedonia (difficulty feeling pleasure) in some individualsen.wikipedia.org. In other words, the same brain chemistry quirk that makes it hard to concentrate can also turn down the volume on enjoyment and motivation.Now, what about alexithymia? While dopamine is more about the reward system, alexithymia has a lot to do with our brain's emotional awareness and interoception (a fancy word for sensing the internal state of your body). Some researchers believe alexithymia is essentially a problem with how the brain's insula and related regions process internal signalsbhcsmt.com. The insula is like the brain's monitor for bodily and emotional sensations – it helps you notice a fast heartbeat and connect it to “I feel anxious,” for example. In alexithymia, that monitoring system might be glitchy. Emotions are still happening under the hood (we still produce the bodily reactions and basic emotional responses), but the translation of those signals into conscious awareness and labels doesn't work well. It's as if the brain doesn't label the emotions correctly or at all. This is why someone with alexithymia can seem calm or unaffected externally while internally their heart is pounding – they truly might not recognize what they're feeling, or they might just register a vague discomfort without an emotional label. Interestingly, alexithymia has been called a “disconnect between the emotional and thinking parts of the brain.” The emotional signals are there, but the cortex (thinking brain) can't interpret them properly.So, how do these tie together? ADHD and alexithymia share some overlapping brain differences. For one, both are linked to difficulties in emotional regulation. ADHD isn't just about attention – many experts now recognize that emotional impulsivity and difficulty regulating feelings are core aspects of ADHD for many peopleneurodivergentinsights.com. If you have ADHD, you might feel things more intensely but also more fleetingly, and you can struggle to manage those feelings (for example, quick frustration, or being easily hurt by criticism, then rapidly switching to another mood). Now add alexithymia into the mix: you have big emotions (possibly ADHD-related) but poor insight into them. That's a challenging combo! In fact, having alexithymia can make it even harder for ADHDers to understand and regulate their emotional ups and downsneurodivergentinsights.comneurodivergentinsights.com. It's like trying to drive a car with a super sensitive gas pedal (ADHD emotions) but a foggy windshield (alexithymia blocking your view of what's happening inside you).Neuroscience also hints at other overlaps. Both ADHD and alexithymia have been associated with atypical functioning in the prefrontal cortex (the brain's executive control center) and in connections between the cortex and deeper emotional brain regions. ADHD's executive function challenges mean the brain can struggle to pause and reflect – which might also affect the ability to reflect on and name emotions. If you're constantly chasing the next stimulus or fighting to focus, you might not have the bandwidth to analyze “What am I feeling right now?” Similarly, alexithymia may involve less activation or connectivity in areas that integrate bodily states into emotional awareness (like the anterior insula, for those who love brain specifics). There's even some evidence pointing to dopamine's role in emotional awareness: conditions with dopamine dysfunction (like Parkinson's disease and yes, ADHD) show high rates of alexithymiabhcsmt.com. Fascinatingly, one study found that when ADHD patients with alexithymia were treated with stimulant medication (which boosts dopamine), their alexithymia scores improved and they became more emotionally aware over six monthsbhcsmt.combhcsmt.com. That's a neat clue that brain chemistry ties these experiences together. Dopamine doesn't just help you focus; it also might help you feel.In summary, the brain's reward and emotion systems are interconnected. ADHD's neurochemistry (like low dopamine) can set the stage for anhedonia – the brain isn't signaling “reward!” as it should, so you might not feel the pleasure or motivation that others do from the same eventneurolaunch.comen.wikipedia.org. Meanwhile, ADHD's cognitive and emotional dysregulation can set the stage for alexithymia – life is fast, attention is scattered, emotions swing, and the self-reflection wires get crossed, leaving you unsure of what you feel. And of course, alexithymia itself can contribute to anhedonia: if you struggle to recognize feelings, you might also have trouble recognizing pleasure or excitement. In fact, one hallmark of alexithymia is an externally oriented thinking style and little attention to inner feelings, which has been linked to a reduced ability to experience positive emotionsneurodivergentinsights.com. That sounds an awful lot like blunted pleasure. So these three concepts feed into each other in a cycle. Next, let's talk about what that cycle feels like in everyday life.When These Worlds Collide: Emotional Regulation, Motivation, and Daily LifeLiving with any one of these — ADHD, alexithymia, or anhedonia — can be challenging. But when they overlap, it can feel like a perfect storm. Let's paint a picture of how that overlap can complicate emotional regulation, motivation, and just day-to-day functioning:1. Emotional Regulation Woes: With ADHD, emotions can be intense and quick to change, but also quick to be forgotten. Add alexithymia, and you might not even know what you're feeling until it boils over. Many of us with ADHD have been told we're “too sensitive” or “overreacting,” when in reality we felt an emotion suddenly and strongly, and it was hard to modulate it. Now imagine not having a good handle on what that emotion was – that's the alexithymia piece. You might go from zero to sixty (calm to furious or panicked) without recognizing, “I'm getting upset” until you're at the breaking point. Afterwards, you might struggle to explain to someone (or to yourself) why you reacted that way, because you lack words for those internal states. This overlap often leads to feeling out of control or ashamed of one's emotions. It can also lead to something I call emotional whiplash: you're overwhelmed by feelings in one moment, and utterly numb the next. That numbness can be a form of anhedonia or emotional shutdown – a brain response where, after so much intense feeling and confusion, you kind of just go blank. Over time, experiencing this rollercoaster can make you anxious about your own emotional reactions (“What if I explode or break down and I don't even know why?”).2. Motivation and Reward: A common ADHD experience is struggling to start or finish tasks that aren't inherently interesting – our brains crave stimulation (the “interest-based nervous system,” as it's sometimes called). Now tack on anhedonia. If you don't feel much pleasure or reward even when you complete something or do something fun, it's doubly hard to motivate yourself. It becomes a vicious cycleneurolaunch.comneurolaunch.com: ADHD makes it hard to stick with activities (so you might impulsively seek something new or get distracted), and anhedonia makes it unrewarding to do so (so even if you stick to it, you feel like “meh, that was pointless”). Picture trying to play a video game where every time you accomplish a mission, the game doesn't give you any points or fanfare – you'd probably lose interest quickly! That's what the ADHD-anhedonia combo can feel like in real life. Even hobbies you know you used to love might not give you the dopamine hit they once did, which is deeply frustrating. You might cycle through activities or careers or relationships, always searching for that spark of joy or interest, but finding that your brain's reward system isn't lighting up as expected. People around you might label you as flaky or lazy, when in truth your brain is under-stimulated and under-rewarded, making sustained effort feel like running a marathon with ankle weights on.3. Daily Functioning and Executive Function: Executive functions (things like planning, organizing, time management) are already a challenge in ADHD. Combine that with these emotional and motivational difficulties, and daily life can get chaotic. For instance, say you have an important project to do. ADHD might have you procrastinating until the last minute because, well, focus is hard until urgency kicks in. Anhedonia means even the reward of “I'll feel proud when this is done” or “I'll enjoy doing this piece I usually like” doesn't register strongly, so there's not much internal pull to start the task. Meanwhile, alexithymia means you might not realize how anxious it's making you to leave it so late – you just feel a vague tension or you get irritable without connecting it to stress. All of this might result in a last-minute panic, tears of frustration you didn't see coming, or even a shutdown where you just can't do it at all. Daily tasks like household chores or self-care can similarly fall apart. You know on some level that you'll feel better if you shower or clean the kitchen, but you don't feel that reward normally (anhedonia), and you don't really register how crummy it feels to be unwashed or in a mess until it's extreme (alexithymia's lack of internal cues), and ADHD has you distracted by a million other more interesting things in the moment. It's easy to see how this trio can impact routines, health, work performance – basically any aspect of daily living.4. Social and Relationship Impact: Emotions and enjoyment are huge parts of how we connect with others. When you have alexithymia, people might perceive you as distant, cold, or uninterested because you don't express emotions in a typical way or struggle to empathize verbally. You might care deeply, but you don't show it with “I'm so happy for you” or “I'm upset about this” because you can't quite identify those feelings in the first place. With ADHD, you might interrupt or space out in conversations, or you feel emotions so strongly that you come on too intense, which can be hard for others to navigate. Now, add anhedonia – maybe you stop wanting to go out with friends or initiate activities because you just don't find joy in them, so people think you're avoiding them or being negative. Misunderstandings abound. A friend might think you don't care about their troubles because you didn't show much emotion when they were sad (when in fact you did care but couldn't express it). A partner might feel hurt that you never seem excited about doing things together anymore, or that you're disengaged. Daily life with others becomes a minefield of potential misinterpretations, where your internal state and your outward actions don't line up in the “expected” way.Everything we just described can seriously affect one's self-esteem and mental health, too. It's common for people in this overlap to start thinking, “What's wrong with me?” or to assume they're just bad at life or broken. Let me assure you right now: you are not broken, and you're not alone in this. There are explanations for why you feel the way you do, and with understanding comes the ability to find new strategies. But before we get to coping strategies, it's important to address some of those misunderstandings from the outside world in a bit more detail – especially how they play out for women and late-diagnosed adults.Misunderstandings and Missed DiagnosesWhen you're dealing with ADHD, alexithymia, and anhedonia, other people in your life (and even some professionals) might not “get it.” These conditions – particularly alexithymia and anhedonia – are often invisible. To someone on the outside, your behaviors might be misread in a bunch of uncharitable ways. Let's clear the air on some common misunderstandings:“You're just being lazy/unmotivated.” How many of us with ADHD have heard that one?

In this powerful final installment of our Wine Culture Awareness Series, I'm pulling back the curtain on how alcohol has subtly infiltrated our lives, disguised as self-care and freedom. This episode is for anyone who's questioning their relationship with drinking - whether you're still consuming alcohol or already alcohol-free. Key Insights: You are not broken - you've been conditioned to cope with challenges in unhealthy ways Alcohol often becomes a mechanism to numb emotional pain, trauma, and stress Cultural messaging has normalized drinking as a solution to life's difficulties Biblical Perspective: I dive deep into scriptures that remind us God is always present, even when we feel most distant. Key verses include: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted" (Psalms) "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart" (Jeremiah) Challenging Your Beliefs: I encourage listeners to: Investigate the origin of their drinking habits Question beliefs like "wine relaxes me" or "I'm more fun when drinking" Recognize that alcohol often creates numbness, not genuine relaxation Personal Reflection Questions: What would you be doing if you didn't believe these lies about drinking? How would you feel if alcohol wasn't controlling your choices? Call to Action: Choose truth over trends Seek support in your journey Start investigating the roots of your drinking patterns Connect with Me: Email: michelle@setfreesisterhood.com Let's continue this important conversation and support each other's healing journey. Remember: You were meant to live fully, not to numb yourself. With love and grace, Michelle

Have you ever wondered how much of your life is influenced by habits that numb you from truly feeling?  We often use numbing agents to avoid painful emotions, but it's crucial to recognize when these habits are no longer serving us. While they may be necessary during intense trauma, relying on them daily to cope with stress only delays our healing process.There is significant importance of letting go of those numbing habits that stop us from experiencing and processing our emotions fully.In this week's episode of Soul Guide Radio, I reveal why it's so important to ditch the habits that numb us out, how to know when we're overly reliant on a habit, and the most common numbing habits to watch out for.Listen now to discover: How some numbing habits can be very sneaky (and even feel like they're GOOD for you)My own story of dealing with PTSD by numbing - and how I let go of my #1 habitAn invitation that will have you saying goodbye to these habits for good, so you can release the energy blocks weighing you down, find your optimal energetic alignment, and start receiving the joy and abundance that's ready to arrive!Timestamps:00:00 Introduction01:10 The Impact of Numbing Agents on Our Health02:25 Current Events and the Rise of Numbing Agents02:42 Listener Review and Community Engagement04:19 Identifying Common Numbing Agents07:37 The Importance of Emotional Awareness15:20 Personal Story: Overcoming Alcohol Dependency24:28 Steps to Ditch Numbing Habits29:39 Invitation STAY CONNECTED: Soul Guide Circle: JOIN the Soul Guide Circle closed Facebook Group Facebook: FOLLOW on Facebook Instagram: FOLLOW on Instagram YouTube: Follow in YouTube Ready to grow a prosperous soul-guided business?

If you've been feeling stuck, heavy, or low-key frustrated with yourself… this might be why. You're not lazy. You're not broken. You're just in a cycle. Numb. Avoid. Repeat. You scroll when you should act. You overthink instead of move. You wait for clarity and call it wisdom. You call it peace but deep down, you know it's something else. This week's episode is about The Comfort Cycle. We break down why you keep defaulting to ease, how it's rewiring your nervous system, and what it's really costing you in energy, identity, and momentum. You don't need to shame yourself. You need to wake up. Not with pressure, but with clarity. This is your reset button.   Kate Hastings | Mental Health Coach

Welcome to another honest, heart-forward episode of The Keto Vegan! This time, I'm diving deep into the real reason so many of us slip—even when we're ticking all the keto vegan boxes. You know the proteins, you've nailed intermittent fasting, your wee strips are showing dark red… and yet the cravings still creep in. Why? Because emotions, my loves. This one's all about how we eat our feelings—and how we can stop. In this episode, I share the mental hack that's helping me beat those carb-obsessed urges, plus why it's not just about willpower. I'll walk you through the two-minute craving reset technique that literally reprogrammes your brain—and how to spot the emotional saboteurs behind your binges. ✨ Key Takeaways It's Not Lack of Knowledge, It's Emotion: Most of us know what to eat—we fall down because we're eating to avoid emotions, not because we're hungry. The Primitive Mind is in Charge: Your unconscious mind is like a six-year-old running your snack drawer. Learn to parent it, not obey it. The Two-Minute Rule Works: When cravings hit, stop everything, move to a ‘safe space' and set a two-minute timer. Feel the feelings instead. Permission, Not Punishment: After your two minutes, you can eat the thing. But often, you won't want to anymore. Loneliness is a Big Trigger: Many emotional eating patterns stem from loneliness—even when we pride ourselves on being strong and independent. You Are Not Weak, You're Human: Recognising and processing emotions builds real, lasting strength. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

In Episode 103 of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Tim and Drew have a much-needed conversation about a growing trend in modern Christianity: the temptation to be wowed by personalities rather than drawn into the presence of God. With social media feeds filled with charismatic pastors, quick soundbites, and trendy sermon titles, many believers are becoming spiritual consumers instead of Spirit-led followers of Jesus.This episode tackles the subtle shift that can happen when we start chasing inspiration over transformation, likes over intimacy, and quotes over Scripture. Tim and Drew reflect on how churches can unintentionally feed this culture—and how pastors can feel the pressure to become performers instead of shepherds.They also open up about the challenge of helping people reengage with the presence of God. Whether it's low turnout for encounter nights or the growing apathy toward spiritual disciplines, it's clear that we're in danger of trading depth for dopamine.But there's hope. This episode is a call to return to our first love—to reclaim a passionate, intimate relationship with God that doesn't depend on a platform, a personality, or a perfectly packaged message. It's about finding Jesus again in the stillness, in the Word, and in genuine community.Apply it this week:Re-center your faith – Spend 15 minutes in silence with God this week. No distractions, no phone—just Him.Limit your scroll – Audit your content diet. Are your follows forming your faith or feeding comparison?Engage locally – Attend a prayer night, small group, or worship gathering at your church—even if it's inconvenient.Share Scripture, not just soundbites – Start your next post or story with a Bible verse that's speaking to you.Ask God for hunger again – Pray for a fresh desire to seek His face over the applause of people.Get the most comfortable shirts we've ever worn!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://kingdomandwill.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Use code: EYESONJESUS for 15% off Get all our links in one easy place! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/eyesonjesuspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get the Eyes on Jesus 90 Day Discernment Devotional⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://a.co/d/3v8963s⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Group on Facebook- Eyes on Jesus podcast community ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/eyesonjesuspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email feedback, questions or show topic ideas to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠eyesonjesuspodcast@outlook.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more information on Drew Barker: Follow Drew on ⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/pastordrewbarker⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Drew's church's website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://yes.online/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more information on Tim Ferrara: ⁠ ⁠ Get all his links in one place- to his social media, all 3 of his books, and more ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/discerning_dad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

It may be an invitation to meet Jesus in a deeper, more personal way than you ever have before.

Have you ever woken up feeling like your life doesn't fit you anymore—even though, from the outside, everything looks “fine”? In this deeply personal solo episode, Lisa McGuire speaks directly to the soul of the high-achiever who is feeling disconnected, foggy, and flat. If life has started to feel like a copy-paste routine and the spark is gone, this isn't a breakdown—it's a breakthrough. Lisa introduces the concept of identity evolution, a sacred invitation to leave behind the version of yourself built on expectations, and step into the version you were always meant to become. You'll learn why overthinking may be blocking your clarity, how to interpret emotional signals as allies, and discover tangible grounding techniques like breathwork, nature immersion, and somatic awareness to help reconnect with your true self. This episode isn't about performance, hustle, or more doing—it's about remembering who you are at your core. Tune in, exhale, and prepare to come home to yourself. Key Takeaways: Identity evolution is not a crisis—it's a sacred call to realignment. Feeling numb or foggy is often a symptom of energetic overload, not personal failure. Overthinking isn't always the answer—sometimes, the mind is the noise. Your emotions are messengers, not enemies. Grounding techniques reconnect you with your body, intuition, and truth. The life that once impressed others may no longer inspire you—and that's okay. “More” isn't about status, it's about being fully alive. Transformation begins with honoring rest, presence, and emotional truth.

It seems to be that more often in life, we find our selves in that vicious cycle of burning out, then numbing out, only to burnout and numb out even more. It's safe to say this especially applies to teachers.Even the PhDs of the world, like today's guest, Brendan, find themselves in that cycle. Brendan is a sociologist who specializes in the social-emotional development and well-being of boys and men, and how that intersects with the well-being of others. Brendan has a PhD in Education from the University of Edinburgh, and was formerly a highschool teacher in Vancouver, Canada. Today, we discuss:How each of us has dealt with (or not dealt with) burnout as we navigate the field of educationThe challenge of trigger warnings, and how they undermine the courageous and dangerous conversations required to do great teachingHow students and teachers alike fall prey to smartphone soothing, and how it affects your classroom(0:00) Class in session(2:11) Brendan introduces himself(5:40) Brendan and Ashanti share their masks, i.e., their teaching personas(18:00) The guilt we develop from teaching in a wealthy school district(24:00) Differences between college students and high school students(27:00) Trigger warnings remove discomfort from good education opportunities(33:00) Teachers will traumatize students, but it's more important to know how to repair(36:45) Smartphone soothing and numbing is dangerous(44:00) How to find Brendan---Connect with Brendan Kwiatkowski-HartmanWebsite/Newsletter: https://remasculine.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/re.masculine/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@remasculine ---Contribute to our Dance-a-thon fundraiser: https://charity.pledgeit.org/EFC-DanceAThon Join our Skool Community: https://www.skool.com/efc-young-mens-advocates-2345 Email us questions and comments at totmpod100@gmail.com Create your own mask anonymously at https://millionmask.org/ ---Connect with Ashanti Branch:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksTwitter: https://twitter.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/---Support the podcast and the work of the Ever Forward Club: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/support ---Connect with Ever Forward Club:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclubTwitter: https://twitter.com/everforwardclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/---#unmaskingwithmaleeducators #millionmaskmovement  #takingoffthemask #totm #doace #UNWME #diaryofaconfusededucator

Life can be so stressful and so overwhelming, that we might seek to become…numb. There are so many ways that we can numb ourselves to the challenges of life. When this becomes a habit through the various ways available to us, then we can find ourselves stuck, stagnating, hiding out and disengaged from life. In this episode, Ted discusses the wisdom he got from an old Pink Floyd song, and how that is a warning to us all when we want to hide out and numb ourselves to our own lives. TedinYourHead.com

Das Piano sucht noch nach der richtigen Melodie und baut damit Spannung auf, zwei kurze Gitarrensaitenanschläge und dann: Directed by Michael Bay. Das Riff und die Credits rollen, „What I've Done“ beginnt so richtig, „Transformers“ endet. Nur einer der Momente für die Ewigkeit, die Linkin Park erschaffen haben, heute immer wieder nachgelebt und nachgemacht auf den Socials. Die Auftragsarbeiten für die Soundtracks der Transformers-Filme passten nur zu Gut, denn Linkin Park sind selber großes Kino: Bombast und Rebellion aus Heavy Rock und Rap. Nu Metal hieß das zur Jahrtausendwende. Nicht viele Bands aus dem Genre sind so gut gealtert wie Linkin Park. Warum? Weil sie Nu Metal eine gehörige Portion Pop versetzten, die milliardenfach geklickten „Numb“ und „In the End“ sind nur zwei schillernde Beispiele. Und sie hatten den besten Sänger des Genres (mindestens): Chester Bennington schrie sich angenehm seine Seele aus dem Leib, was den Emo-Texten zusätzlich Glaubwürdigkeit verlieh, vgl. „Crawling“ oder „Somewhere I Belong“. Diese einmalige Kombination macht Linkin Park zur erfolgreichsten Rock-Band des neuen Jahrtausends mit um die 100 Millionen verkauften Alben. Die Zahl ist eine Sensation, wenn man bedenkt, dass Linkin Park erst mit dem Einbruch der Musikindustrie auftauchten. Chester Bennington ist nicht mehr unter uns, der Neustart von Linkin Park ist sieben Jahre nach seinem Tod geglückt. Zumindest musikalisch, kommunikationstechnisch wurde die Verpflichtung von Emily Armstrong als neuer Sängerin zu einem mittleren Desaster. Die Geschichte dahinter und die Geschichte der Band von Anfang an reflektiert Bandgründer, Produzent, Songwriter und Rapper Mike Shinoda. Musik-Journo-Kollege Kotaro Dürr ist zu Gast und lässt seinen inneren Teenager – einen glühenden Linkin-Park-Fan – wieder heraus.

Public corruption used to be a congressman hiding $90,000 in his freezer. Now, we have a president taking "me time" to rake in $40 million from a Chinese crypto billionaire who was facing fraud charges under POTUS 46. And that's just a drop in the bucket of some of Trump's recent haul. Of course, today's FBI will do nothing about it, and his buddies at the top of the bureau are instead focusing on celebrities who are definitely not Team Trump, or a person who posted a benign beach meme about 47. Meanwhile, the FBI has been ordered to redirect resources to deportations, raising serious questions about whether counterterrorism and counterintelligence—the agency's main priorities since 9/11—are being neglected.

In this week's episode, Jennie Allen addresses a topic many of us feel but rarely talk about—numbness. When we are constantly bombarded with the problems of the world, it's easy to check out emotionally, leading us to a place of indifference. But what if indifference is causing us to miss the specific calling God has placed in our lives? Jennie challenges us to embrace our limits and recognize that we are not called to fix everything. She encourages us to choose where to invest our energy, time, and resources strategically and to trust that God has placed us in our part of the tapestry to play our role well. This episode will help you let go of the impossible burden of trying to care about everything—and focus on where God has called you to make a difference.
