The Dr. Alisha Podcast: What’s the Lyrics To your Life, Love, & Relationships?Episode 10: Poetry: ExpressionsIn this episode, I share a short poem that I wrote in 2010, Expressions. Expressing your emotions can be difficult at first but the result is liberating. I believe that when we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.
