Today’s big question, short answer is: What do you do when it all hits the fan? 

People are often conditioned to act like nothing’s wrong. I used to overcommit myself, then pretend everything was fine or simply block out my negative feelings (often with unhealth habits). It took me a long time to learn how to process my feelings in a healthy way. I allow myself simply to feel them; then, use that fire to make a change. 

At the end of the episode, I share a tip one of my colleagues taught me on how to handle difficult feelings in a way that lets you move forward productively.
