At the height of her fame, Adele said she felt nothing.
Not joy, not pride — just flat.
After she launched her album 25, she broke records and filled arenas, and the world saw success. But all she felt was survival. “I wasn’t living,” she said later. “I was performing being okay.”
Instead of launching straight into the next tour, she did something radical for a superstar — she stopped. She cancelled shows. She disappeared from the spotlight.
People called it risky, but Adele wasn’t falling apart. She was un-numbing.
She was trading applause for presence.
When she returned years later with her album 30, her voice had changed — deeper, wiser, stiller. That album wasn’t a comeback; it was a return to self.
For intuitive sensitives, numbing can look like composure.
We confuse peace with absence, calm with collapse.
We keep moving, helping, managing — anything to avoid stillness. Because stillness can feel like failure.
But numb isn’t neutral.
It’s the body saying, “I’ve carried too much, for too long.”
Numbness is not an ending — it’s an in-between. A doorway from survival to presence.
When you meet it with curiosity instead of criticism, something extraordinary happens: feeling returns, gently.
When you notice yourself on autopilot — doing, scrolling, helping — pause and breathe out.
Ask your body: “Am I calm, or am I numb?”
If calm: you’ll feel warmth, soft focus, a quiet pulse of life.
If numb: you’ll feel flat, distant, or subtly “off.”
Don’t judge it.
Just notice the difference.
That awareness alone begins to thaw the frozen parts of you.
Numb, Busy, or Present? Find your real yes.
When empathy becomes self-erasure, the way back isn’t more effort — it’s gentler presence.
Take This Into Your Life Now
Think back to a time this week where you went a little numb, maybe with work, people or even yourself.
Ask: “What part of me went quiet here?”
Share what you observed, even one sentence, in the private group because your small truth might help someone else start feeling again, too.


1. Workbook
In Achieve Success: Developing Intuition, Day 9 (p. 38) helps you recognise how calm can quietly slip into numbness and how “keeping it together” can turn into disappearing inside yourself.
Day 9 shows you how to move from autopilot back to gentle presence, so your sensitivity feels alive again rather than drained.
If you already have your copy, turn to Day 9 and explore where you’ve been running on quiet emptiness.
If not, click below to get your copy and begin practising the kind of empathy that restores rather than drains you.
When you complete this small act, you’re already practising the first layer of energetic sovereignty — where compassion becomes clarity.
