After wrestling with the cultural expectation to prioritize intellect over emotion, I've come to a profound realization about the power of embracing our feelings, especially in moments of stress and joy. 

Today we navigate the complex terrain of our emotional world, where I share my journey of self-discovery and the transformative impact of acknowledging every feeling that arises. We explore the idea of "foreboding joy," a term brought to light by the insightful Brené Brown, and discuss why allowing ourselves to bask in happiness without fear is essential for our emotional well-being.

Through the lens of my own experiences in therapy and the Manage Your Stress mentorship, I'll reveal the life-changing benefits of developing an emotional vocabulary and the importance of nervous system hygiene. 

It's time to challenge societal norms dictating which feelings are valid, particularly for women, and to arm ourselves with the practical tools necessary for stress management and emotional regulation.
