Join Laura and Carletta for a conversation about why we should be more than just "fine" in our lives.
Podcast Notes:
By definition, fine means many things in many contexts but we tend to use it as feeling “okay” but fine is not a feeling word. Here are a few ways to learn how to become aware of how you are feeling and how to address it:
- Happiness is not the only emotion we should feel on our journey of self-care and wellness. Learn more about the 5 emotions we experience: Joy, Fear, Sadness, Disgust, and Anger, by watching Carletta and Laura’s favorite movie, Inside Out.
- We often lack the language and ability to communicate our feelings so we tend to bury them. Vulnerability transforms the way we live, learn more about this in the book “Daring Greatly” by Brené Brown. If you are interested in reading one of Laura’s favorite books, check it out on Amazon here.
- Carletta hosted a Wellness Webinar with the VEBA Resource Center where she explored how tapping into our emotions can help us navigate the transition back to school. Check out the webinar, “Fine is Not a Feeling: Back to School in a Post-COVID World” on the VRC’s YouTube channel.
