Ever feel like you're either totally numb or way too overwhelmed — and never really okay? You're not broken. You're outside your window of tolerance — a simple but powerful framework that helps explain why anxiety, shutdown, or emotional chaos show up even when you're trying to "just have faith."
In this episode, we break down what the window of tolerance is, how your nervous system reacts to stress and anxiety, and why understanding this is so important for healing — especially for those in their 20s navigating big transitions, constant pressure, and spiritual questions.
You’ll learn:
This is your permission to slow down, breathe, and see what you're feeling through a lens of compassion and grace, not shame. God isn’t asking you to push through — He’s inviting you to regulate, rest, and return to peace.
I hope you enjoy, love!
