What does it mean to truly express your emotions in a healthy way? In this episode, Eddie Reece and Bill Courtright unpack the concept of emotional expression in both therapy and everyday behavior. Eddie defines it as “the right emotion at the right time to the right degree, without beating yourself up,” and explores how suppression, misrepresentation, and poor timing often get in the way. Together, they discuss how therapists help clients connect with their true emotions through the body, why emotional maturity doesn’t mean being unemotional, and how curiosity and kindness toward oneself can foster growth. With honesty and vulnerability, Eddie shares his own journey of emotional work, offering insights that encourage listeners to embrace authenticity, reduce stigma, and live more fully.
