1KHO 458: Reclaiming Joy When You Can’t Seem to Slow Down | Dr. Judith Joseph, High Functioning
Podcast: The 1000 Hours Outside PodcastPublished On: Mon Apr 07 2025
Description: Dr. Judith Joseph, renowned psychiatrist and author of High Functioning: Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy, joins Ginny Yurich on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to shine a light on a silent epidemic—high-functioning depression. In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Judith explains why so many seemingly successful, productive people—especially women—feel numb, restless, and joyless while continuing to perform at a high level. She unpacks the connection between trauma, people-pleasing, and emotional exhaustion, and introduces powerful concepts like anhedonia and modern-day masochism that help explain why burnout alone doesn't tell the whole story. With warmth, clarity, and depth, Dr. Judith offers real tools for reclaiming joy through her five V’s framework—including valuing relationships, taking tech breaks, and even learning how to celebrate again. She reminds us that joy isn’t a distant ideal, but something we can reach for daily in small, intentional ways. If you've ever felt like you're just going through the motions or can’t figure out why life feels so heavy, this episode will help you name it—and start to heal it. ** Get your copy of High Functioning here Learn more about everything Dr. Judith has to offer here ** A huge thank you to our sponsors!
