Unlocking Emotional Freedom: How to Actually Feel, Not Just Think

You have to feel in order to heal.

In this episode, we explore all things emotions as I explain emotional health and discuss the difference between emotional intelligence and maturity. You’ll learn why ignoring your emotions blocks your healing, health, and happiness. I also share my personal journey from emotional suppression to embracing and mastering my feelings.

We’ll cover the common challenges many people face with their emotions, like judging or disconnecting from emotions, and you’ll gain practical steps to cultivate emotional health, set boundaries, and trust your body to truly feel. I also explain how adverse childhood experiences and societal norms create unhealthy emotional habits.

If you’re tired of being intimidated by your feelings and want to understand how to feel healthfully, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to learn how to embrace your emotions, break through emotional stagnation, and heal more authentically so you can transform your relationship with your emotions and yourself.
