Emotions can bring some of the greatest moments into our lives, such as seeing your kid’s first steps or getting that promotion, but without the proper regulation, emotions can be destructive. These emotions bring destruction by debilitating your executive function and making it difficult for your brain to learn, which is extremely worrying in our schools.

In today’s episode, join Eve Miller, Ph.D., Director of Research at FranklinCovey Education, Kim Yaris, M.ED, Researcher at FranklinCovey Education, and Jennifer Chevalier, ED.D, Director of Funding at FranklinCovey Education as they dive into the dangers of unregulated emotions and how to help others learn how to control them better. With these steps and knowledge, you can help your students not only express but understand their feelings and not allow them to hurt their education.
