When You Feel Nothing: Emotional Numbness in High Functioning Women

A guided conversation on burnout, disconnection, and the cost of always being “okay”

When You Feel Nothing: Emotional Numbness in High Functioning Women

You’re showing up.
You’re getting things done.
You’re handling what needs to be handled.

But something feels… off.

This guided experience is for women who are:

• Functioning at a high level
• Managing responsibilities
• But feeling emotionally disconnected, flat, or drained

Together, we’ll explore:

• What emotional numbness (anhedonia) can look like
• How burnout shows up beyond exhaustion
• The impact of prolonged stress and survival mode
• Gentle ways to begin reconnecting with yourself

This is not therapy.
This is not surface-level self-care.

This is a space to:

Pause, reflect, and name what’s been hard to explain

This event also serves as a preview of an upcoming collaborative wellness experience with Dress for Success Columbus.

🎯 Who Should Attend:

• Women navigating burnout
• High-functioning professionals
