When Numbing Becomes Our Normal: The Wild Ache That Calls Us Home
In this episode, I take you into the rich terrain that I have been living inside for much of this past year. I speak about how our biology and nervous systems were not designed for the amount of input, data, and stimulation we are attempting to metabolize each day. This often leads many of us to choose behaviors that help numb the overwhelm.It is a smart strategy, but it comes with a cost. Numbing pulls us out of our own lives. It creates distance in our relationships and leaves us with a quiet loneliness beneath our strength, alongside a deeper ache that keeps calling for our attention.This episode is the origin story of the Revealing Wisdom Collective, a weekly sanctuary where we strengthen the nervous system, awaken the deeper self, and let buried wisdom rise.Inside the Collective, we move through one Power Gateway at a time over the course of two full months, following a deliberate rhythm designed to soften the mind, loosen subconscious limiting beliefs, and integrate new truths into the body and bones. Doors for this membership offering opens January 13, 2026 - join anytime and catch up on through recorded sessions.Inside the Episode:• the loneliness that can stay hidden even when we are surrounded by people• why numbing is an innocent biological response, not a personal failing• the cost of living in a world that moves far faster than our nervous systems were designed to handle• how subtle freeze states disconnect us from intuition, aliveness, and self trust• the personal journey that required me to pause, slow down, and radically tend to my own system• how the Revealing Wisdom Collective was born from that deep winter of listeningA look at the Six Power Gateways inside the CollectiveCentering PowerThe power that returns you to your inner axis, the quiet, unwavering ground beneath every emotion, every choice, every storm.Relational PowerThe ability to stay rooted in yourself while meeting another with presence, transparency, and clean energetic boundaries.Self Acceptance PowerThe liberating capacity to stop waging war against yourself and to meet your humanity with tenderness, truth, and self regard.Wild PowerThe sovereign, undomesticated intelligence that dissolves internalized hierarchy, obedience, and shame so your original vitality can rise.Intuitive PowerThe subtle inner channel where truth arrives before thought, the deep knowing that guides you through mystery, timing, and right action.Erotic PowerThe sacred life force that animates your creativity, desire, vitality, and full spectrum expression, not only sexual, but inherently alive.If you have been longing for a place where you do not have to hold everything alone, where your tenderness and your power are both welcome, the Revealing Wisdom Collective was created for you.Join us here → https://www.revealingwisdom.com/collectiveOr stay connected through the Revealing Wisdom NewsletterConnect with Anne-Marie Marron: - If you have a power reclamation story to share or questions, please send them to Ask Anne-Marie https://anne-mariemarron.com/ask- Find Anne-Marie on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/anne.marie.marron/- If you wonder whether Power Reclamation Coaching is for you, book a discovery call https://calendly.com/anne-marie-marron/30-minute-consultation- For more on customized immersions with Anne-Marie, please visit: https://anne-mariemarron.com/integral-leadership-immersion
