What do you say to yourself when you make a mistake? What is your first reaction when something triggers you? How aware are you of your emotions and your response to them?

In this episode, I'm joined by an Emotional Intelligence Educator, the fantastic Ash Val. Growing up with a paraplegic father, Ashley got curious about how the body works, its fragility, and what leverages health. Her curiosity turned into an obsession for learning everything she could about building a healthy lifestyle, and she became a personal trainer. Yet after a decade of exercising, eating healthy, and sleeping well, Ashley realized she overlooked a crucial element of overall health: emotions. 

Throughout this episode, Ash Val talks about her journey and the experiences that led her to become an Emotional Intelligence expert and educator. We talk about why it is only possible to change the macro once we fix the micro, the importance of taking control of our self-talk, and how to gain awareness of our emotions. Ash also explains why dreaming big is a skill that needs to be learned, how to build a powerful toolbox to deal with emotions, why anger is necessary, how to make healthy boundaries, and more.
