#128: Life has a way of throwing curveballs that send us spiraling into an emotional abyss. Just when I thought I'd unpack childhood trauma, recent events have steered me towards a raw examination of the emotional rollercoaster we often ride. This episode peels back the layers of grappling with the challenge of expressing emotions as they happen, the dread of inflicting pain on others, and the habitual concealment of feelings that inevitably leads to an emotional eruption.
Taking a page from Meenu's teachings on emotional agility, the conversation shifts to the importance of sitting with our emotions and resisting the temptation to distract ourselves from what we're truly feeling. As I share my battle with the guilt that often tags along with low spirits, despite an outward facade of perfection, we delve into the inner dialogue that shapes our emotional landscape.
A great podcast episode who talks about this at length and more beautifully than I can peace mill together is The Skinny Confidential's podcast #693 with Dr. Susan David. it is titled How to Master Emotions, Manage Stress & Anxiety, & Get Unstuck. Truly powerful episode, highly recommend!
