đïž Episode Title:Emotional Constipation: A Leadership Epidemic
đ Show Notes:
What if the real reason you feel disconnectedâfrom your team, your partner, your lifeâhas nothing to do with your workload⊠and everything to do with your emotional backlog?
In this episode, weâre talking about Emotional Capacityâwhat it is, why most of us were never taught how to build it, and how the lack of it quietly erodes our leadership, relationships, and sense of self.
Youâll learn:
Why emotions are actually data, not drama
How emotional suppression burns more energy than you think
What it means to âfeel more to burn out lessâ
Three small (but powerful) steps to rebuild your Emotional Capacity
And how to finally stop performing leadership and start feeling your way forward
This isnât about getting weepy in board meetings. Itâs about reclaiming your inner guidance system so you can lead with clarity, connection, and self-trust.
đĄ One-liner to remember:You canât connect with others if youâre hoarding unprocessed emotions like a leadership hoarder.
