What if “managing emotions” isn’t actually the goal—but a misunderstanding that’s keeping us disconnected from ourselves, our teams, and the people we lead?
Many leaders were taught to manage emotions—to control or suppress them—rather than to understand and process them.
But what if your emotions aren’t the problem? What if they’re invitations to pause, listen, and lead more humanely?
In this episode, Anna unpacks a new, more human-centered approach to emotions in leadership, work, and entrepreneurship that allows for compassion, connection, and clarity.
She breaks down the difference between managing emotions and holding space for them—both in yourself and those you lead.
You’ll learn:
✔️ Why “managing emotions” can unintentionally create shame and disconnection
✔️ How childhood messages about emotions shape the way we lead today
✔️ A simple, compassionate framework for processing emotions through the body before returning to rational discernment
✔️ How learning to hold space for your emotions makes you a more grounded, people-first leader
✔️ Why this practice is essential for creating emotionally safe and truly human work environments
This episode will help you move from emotional suppression to emotional integration—so you can lead with clarity, calm, and compassion.
