Note to All Listeners: Ghosting is defined as: The practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication (Oxford Languages). When you leave an abusive situation without saying "goodbye," it's not ghosting, it's "self-protection." When you quietly exit a relationship after a boundary has been violated, it's not ghosting, it's "self-respect."

If your nervous system has been on high alert lately, you aren’t alone. Maybe you’re dealing with a painful betrayal or the silence of being ghosted, and facing a job issue, a personal loss, or health stress.

In this episode, Dr. Ken Huey from The Voice of Hope Podcast shares how to navigate compounded stress and find your way back from overwhelm when everything feels like "too much."

In this episode, we discuss:

• The Breath as an Anchor: Using your breath as the primary entry point to the present moment.
• Success vs. Distraction: Why achieving one "meaningful win" is more effective for stress relief than common distractions.
• Tools for a Reality Check: Using journaling and a "circle of trust" to reset your perspective after extremely stressful situations.
• Curating Your Influence: The importance of intentionally choosing the five people or sources that shape your mindset.
• From Betrayal to Boundaries: Shedding a victim mindset, taking your power back, and creating high standards and non-negotiable boundaries.

Whether you are reeling from a recent relationship ending or feeling the heavy weight of multiple issues, this conversation will give you free, easy-to-implement tools to help. It will give you hope.
