If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things, but deep down, you’re disconnected, exhausted, and stuck on autopilot, this episode is for you.
Today, we’re talking about functional freeze: the state where your nervous system is so overwhelmed that it learns to survive by shutting down your emotions, creativity, and motivation. You’re functioning, but not feeling.
In this episode, I’ll walk you through how to recognize when you’re in functional freeze, why it’s not your fault, and how to gently guide your body, mind, and energy back into safety and flow. We’ll explore the power of nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and spiritual reconnection so you can move from surviving to thriving, one small step at a time.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
