58: Anxiety and Emotional Intelligence: From Overthinking to Overcoming.
11/14/24 • 35 min
Today I’m pulling back the curtain on my own experience with anxiety and how I overcame it with Emotional Intelligence.
From my early years as a shy, anxious kid to the struggles it brought me as a teen and adult — especially when it came to school, confidence, and building my career — I’m sharing it all. Why? Because I know so many of you, whether as parents or individuals, are grappling with anxiety, too.
I explore the different types of anxiety disorders (yes, there’s more than one!) and dig into the problematic thinking patterns that underpin and fuel anxiety. This gives you such a clear window into seeing how an anxious child thinks and perceives the world around them.
Whether you’ve experienced anxiety yourself or you want to understand your kids through it, this episode is packed with insights, personal stories, and practical advice to help you build a life of calm and confidence.

59: How to Get The Happier, Calmer and Connected Family You Want With Emotional Intelligence
Today I’m sharing an episode where I was the guest – being interviewed by JoAnn Crohn and Brie Tucker on the No Guilt Mom podcast.
So, you’ve decided you want a happier, calmer, and more connected family, eh? Well, friend, welcome to the rollercoaster ride known as “parenting with emotional intelligence.”
Parenting often involves navigating different styles, which, being 100% honest, can sometimes feel like you and your partner are in a three-legged race...on ice.
Emotional intelligence helps you understand each other’s perspectives and find common ground. Just imagine your kid having the ability to understand and manage their emotions while empathizing with others. Sounds like a dream, right?
By nurturing emotional intelligence, you’re not just preparing them for playground politics but equipping them for life’s bigger challenges. Plus, who wouldn’t want a kid who can articulate their feelings instead of falling apart or throwing things in fits of anger?
So, if you’re dreaming of a happier, calmer, and more connected family, emotional intelligence is your secret weapon. Trust me, the journey might be bumpy, but the destination is oh-so-worth it.
Who knows, you might even become that zen parent who handles those spaghetti-throwing incidents with a smile. Now, that’s emotional intelligence at work!
