257. Emotional Mastery: You Can’t Outthink Your Feelings (Part I)
So many of us were taught to keep it together. Push it down, keep it moving, stay in control. But what happens when the pressure builds and the old strategies stop working?
In part one of this powerful series, Anna shares what emotional mastery really means, why it’s not about staying calm or looking composed, but about building awareness, naming what we feel, and learning to surf the emotional waves instead of damming them up.
Join Anna and Tim as they unpack the truth behind suppression, the myth of stoicism, and how to recognize when your nervous system is hijacked and heading for burnout. This is the start of something deeper.
This Episode Covers:
- Why emotional regulation isn’t about control.
- The difference between suppression and mastery.
- What happens when your prefrontal cortex goes offline.
- How high performers mask anxiety and burnout.
- The role of culture in how we show (or don’t show) emotion.
- What it means to live in a state of chronic stress.
- The ICE Pivot and STIR Loop frameworks.
- Practical ways to start identifying and naming your emotions.
Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
Mad love!
