Emotional Expression. What story are you telling others when they see your face, hear your voice, and observe you in silence?

In this episode, I frame the virtue of Emotional Expression, or practically put, the ability to share what’s real inside in a way that strengthens relationships instead of tearing them down.

Through a story about my daughters learning to communicate clearly and calmly, we look at how honesty, empathy, and courage work together to create trust and connection. This conversation frames Emotional Expression not as control or suppression, but as stewardship of the heart.

The balance between truth and tenderness. When paired with empathy, assertiveness, and interpersonal relationship awareness, it becomes a critical virtue of leadership and love, both at home and at work.
