Are you tired of carrying that emotional backpack up your mountain of scaling your business? Avoiding your emotions might feel like a smart thing to do so you don't get overwhelmed, but I'm here to tell you it's actually keeping you stuck. In today's episode, I share exactly what happens in your brain and body when you push those big feelings away – from how they physically get stored in your connective tissue to how they create those frustrating patterns of self-sabotage that won't budge no matter how much mindset work you do. Plus, I'll guide you through a simple but incredibly powerful exercise to feel and release emotions safely – right here on the podcast!
