Description

Today, we’re talking about emotional wellness and how it works in our everyday lives. We talk about how emotions act like warning lights, signaling that something deeper might be going on. Zach shares his struggles with big emotions and practical tools that help, and Hanna talks about the challenges of managing emotions as a parent. From learning how to calm ourselves down to teaching our kids how to do the same, we cover it all.

Here’s what we cover:

• Emotions as Warning Lights: they’re more than just feelings , they’re telling us something important.
• Tools for Managing Emotions: cover the main bases like eating, sleeping, exercise and breathing, and how getting outside can make a big difference.
• Parenting with Emotional Health in Mind: helping our kids (and ourselves) manage emotions, especially when things get crazy.
• Healthy Emotional Habits: staying aware of our feelings and pre-deciding to handle stressful moments before they even happen.
• Escaping the Digital Trap: setting screen time boundaries and finding healthier ways to cope.
