"Something Feels Off. Here's Why That Actually Makes Sense."
If you've been carrying a heaviness you can't quite name: a low hum of anxiety, a restlessness you can't shake, a sense that something is wrong even when you can't point to what, you're not alone. And you're not broken.
In this first episode of Between Sessions, Certified Trauma Recovery Coach and Grief Recovery Specialist Jolyn Armstrong explores what's actually happening in your nervous system when the world feels uncertain and your internal model of how things are supposed to work no longer matches reality. She unpacks the psychology of disillusionment: what it is, where it shows up, and why it hits the body the way it does.
From faith and career to the institutions we grew up trusting, disillusionment is one of the most undernamed sources of pain people are carrying right now. And with America marking its 250th year, the collective weight of that experience has never felt more present.
This episode won't tell you what to think. It will help you understand what you're feeling and offer a path toward something more grounded than either blind loyalty or giving up entirely.
