In this special and heartfelt episode of The Leader in You, Dr. Lola Gershfeld and co-host Polina Marian welcome a uniquely insightful guest—16-year-old CEO, influencer, and long-time EmC practitioner, Elli Goldberg.
Elli shares her remarkable journey of navigating family transitions, growing through emotionally focused therapy, and applying the Emotional Connection (EmC) process to her relationships, her business, and the world of social media influence.
Despite her age, Elli brings an emotional depth and clarity that many adults struggle to find. She opens up about:
- How divorce, family challenges, and therapy shaped her emotional confidence
- What it’s like to manage conflict publicly in the influencer world
- How the EmC process taught her to slow down emotions and find her true feelings
- Why drawing emotional images is both the hardest and most transformative part of the process
- How empathy and emotional awareness changed the way she views people, relationships, and even online drama
- Why teaching kids and teens emotional language can change their lives—and yours
Elli’s voice offers a rare window into the next generation—one that is emotionally aware, deeply expressive, and committed to connection.
If you’re a parent, a leader, or someone who wants to understand emotional safety from a fresh and inspiring perspective, this episode is a must-listen.
The Leader in You is the go-to podcast for anyone who wants to create a workplace culture where you can thrive.
Envision a future where you are more grounded, confident, and in sync with your team.
