Ep 49: Expanding Your Emotional Capacity: How to Move Through Big Feelings and Step Into Your Power

Ep 49: Expanding Your Emotional Capacity: How to Move Through Big Feelings and Step Into Your Power

If you’re a high-achieving, midlife woman who has spent her life getting shit done, building a career, taking care of everyone else, and being the go-to for, well, everything—this episode is for you.


When you finally decide it’s your turn—when you prioritize your desires, go after your dreams, and step into your power—the first thing you’ll face is a tidal wave of big, uncomfortable feelings.


Whether it’s in your relationships, your career, your body, or your creative pursuits—anywhere you want to change, grow, or become someone new—this is the thing that will stop you if you don’t know how to move through it.

In this episode, we dive deep into building emotional capacity and why it’s the key to living a ‘fuck yes’ life.


We talk about:

✨ Why some emotions feel so uncomfortable—and why that’s a sign you’re on the right track.
✨ The truth about numbness and how it’s often a sign we’re avoiding feeling the big stuff.
✨ How our brains are wired for survival, not thriving—and how to rewire them for success.
✨ Practical tools to build emotional capacity, including The Pause, Name It to Tame It, and more.
✨ How learning to be with discomfort is the meat of the work—the unbinding—that leads to true freedom.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, numb, or like you’re playing small, this episode will give you the tools to build resilience, reclaim your power, and create a life that feels like a full-body ‘fuck yes.’
