Have you ever felt alone—even when surrounded by others? Maybe it crept in quietly, or maybe it hit you like a wave. In this episode, I’m getting real about that feeling of aloneness—why it’s not just 'in your head,' and why your body may actually be trying to protect you. I’ll share the neuroscience behind loneliness, how to regulate your nervous system in those foggy moments, and what helped me personally during some of the hardest seasons of disconnection. If you’ve ever thought, ‘Is it just me?’—this one’s for you.
