3 Ways Adults and Children Deal with Uncomfortable Emotions

In this episode, I dive into how both children and adults handle and express uncomfortable feelings and why it’s important to understand them, and how to express them in healthy ways.

As an emotional intelligence coach, working with both children and adults, I have seen firsthand the impact of understanding and navigating uncomfortable emotions.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Three ways both adults and children deal with uncomfortable behaviours.
• What behaviours can signal emotion suppression and how to recognise these to help us
• Why someone might respond to emotion with aggression, and what can be done to mitigate these reactions
• How expressing your emotions more effectively can improve your mental health and relationships
• How your upbringing and parental influence shapes your emotional responses.
