Most of us view our own emotions negatively - like they're inconvenient, embarrassing, they're unnecessary, they get in the way, or they're feminine and silly. And for others, because they haven't been in the practice of feeling their emotions, the emotions can be scary or unpredictable.
But emotions can be useful tools because they give us clues to what's happening around us and what we're really thinking. Additionally, they're part of being human - and there's no escaping having them.
More often than we realize, emotions are what drive our decisions - even for the most logical among us. So, getting in touch with what we're feeling and why can lead to a really profound awareness about why we do what we do - especially when it comes to being able to keep commitments to ourselves, procrastinating, or getting our shiz together.
In this episode, learn the steps to become emotionally intelligent so that you can become aware of your emotions, and have better control over them, and therefore your life.

If you’re a woman in midlife who wants better health without obsessing over weight, you’re in the right place. I’m Elizabeth Sherman, a life and health coach and host of the Total Health in Midlife Podcast.
After coaching hundreds of women, I know the real problem usually isn’t “not enough information” – it’s too much of it, and not knowing where to start. With close to 300 episodes, this show can feel that way too.
To make it easy, I created a free Listener’s Roadmap that helps you figure out which episodes are right for you right now. Tell me what you’re struggling with – low energy, emotional eating, stress, sleep, exercise, or all of the above – and I’ll point you to a curated path of episodes and resources to get you moving.
