The Honest Pause
I Feel Lost—But Don’t Know Why
Episode — “I Feel Lost—But Don’t Know Why”
(aka: The Quiet Kind of Lost & How to Find Your Way Back)
Episode Description:
You’ve checked the boxes—career, relationships, routines—and from the outside, it all should feel fine. But inside? Something’s off. In this episode of The Honest Pause, Maryam and Teryl dive into that subtle, often silent experience of feeling lost… without a clear reason why.
Together, they explore:
- Why “feeling lost” isn’t a crisis—it’s a signal
- How life transitions (even the good ones) can shake up your sense of self
- What identity lag is—and why it leaves you feeling like a stranger in your own life
- The difference between realignment and reinvention (hint: you don’t have to burn it all down)
- Gentle mindset shifts and micro-practices to start reconnecting with you
This episode offers real talk, neuroscience-backed insights, and vulnerable moments about what it’s like to outgrow parts of your life you never thought you would. Whether you’re floating in the fog or just wondering why “fine” feels so far from fulfilled—this one’s your soft place to land.
And if you’ve ever typed “why do I feel off” into Google at 2AM or gotten teary during a random commercial, you’re in the right place.
