We’ve all had feelings we wish we could erase. The harder we try to push these emotions away, the stronger they often come back. In this episode, I share two powerful concepts that can shift the way you relate to unwanted emotions. Instead of resisting them, you’ll learn how to recognize the hidden ways your feelings are trying to protect you—and how to move forward in line with your values, even when those emotions linger.

🎧 This is a practical, compassionate approach for anyone tired of fighting with their own inner world.

You’ll Learn:

• Why your most uncomfortable emotions are actually attempts to protect you
• A simple two-step process to observe your feelings without magnifying them
• How to align your choices with your deeper values, even when emotions resist
