67 | STOP Labeling Your Emotions as ‘Good’ or ‘Bad’

Let’s talk about emotional labels. In this episode, I’m sharing why calling your emotions “good” or “bad” can actually hold you back from processing them in a healthy way.

You’ll learn how to use neutral language, sit with emotional discomfort, and give yourself more space to feel without fear or shame. This is a simple but powerful shift I use with my clients, and it can make a big difference in how you relate to your emotions.Related Episodes:28 | Inner Critic Won't Hush Up?
