Episode Synopsis

This episode is about emotions and feelings. Are they really different? All evidence indicates yes. This episode is going to ensure that we keep learning, and in the process, growing, so that we can identify our own emotions and/or feelings and manage them both in a kind and loving manner. That way they will serve us, instead of sink us. There’s a reason we have strong feelings, because they are guiding us through life based upon our interpretation of those feelings.
