Episode Details

Are you functioning but not really feeling?

If you grew up in dysfunction, emotional neglect, addiction, chaos, criticism, or unpredictability, emotional numbness may have become a survival response.

In this episode of Tammy’s Takes, Tammy Vincent follows up on her conversation with Megan Margherio to explore why adult children of dysfunction often feel disconnected from themselves, struggle with nervous system dysregulation, and stay stuck in survival mode long after childhood ends.

Tammy breaks down:

✔ Emotional numbness and childhood trauma

✔ Nervous system healing and regulation

✔ Why peace and safety can feel uncomfortable

✔ Survival mode, hypervigilance, and emotional shutdown

✔ Why adult children struggle to feel joy

✔ Body awareness and emotional healing practices

✔ How to stop spiraling and reconnect with yourself

✔ Practical nervous system tools you can use today

If you’ve ever wondered, “Why do I feel numb even though my life looks okay?” this episode is for you.

Because you are not broken. You adapted.
