DrMelanieEmpowers Presents: Growing Up, the Age of Your Emotions
Growing Up, the Age of Your Emotions podcast is a place to recognize at what age or level you engage with others. Leadership is an important aspect of our lives, no matter the capacity in which it is demonstrated. Most often, our feelings, interactions, or reactions are based on past experiences. The current situation or engagement highlights what may have been buried or thought resolved. This is not a therapy session, nor do we advise on what you should or should not do. We do discuss events and ask, "What is the age of that or your emotion?" Join us; you will find the conversations enlightening and beneficial as you learn and continue the journey of growing up and discovering the age of your emotions.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This is the first episode of the Growing Up podcast. An overview of what we will discuss, audience interaction, and why this podcast was created. We talk a bit about how our emotions often are not our current age. As a matter of fact, people usually react, interact, or engage with others based on past experiences, not necessarily based on the present moment.
Growing Up: The Age of Your Emotions is a reflective, eye‑opening podcast that helps you understand the emotional age behind your reactions, relationships, and everyday interactions. At its core, the show invites you to explore how much of what you feel today is shaped by experiences from years ago, and how those buried emotional moments still influence the way you show up in the world.
Each episode creates a thoughtful space to examine the stories, triggers, and patterns that surface in adulthood but originate in childhood or earlier life chapters. Rather than offering therapy or advice, the podcast asks powerful questions, such as “What is the age of that emotion?” that guide you toward deeper self‑awareness and emotional maturity.
Listeners describe the conversations as enlightening, grounding, and transformative — a weekly opportunity to grow, heal, and understand yourself with more clarity and compassion.
