We hear often about the importance of setting boundaries as a way of practicing self-care, but what about emotional boundaries? Have you ever intentionally created space to become aware of the way your body reacts to the emotions of another? Or how comfortable you are expressing your own emotions? Often times in childhood, we learn through social conditioning within our families, our communities, and our culture, how to dance with our emotions and the emotions of others. Maybe we learned that we should not make our father angry or that we were somehow responsible when our mother cried. All of these complicated pieces come into play as we learn more about our relationship with emotions and the emotional boundaries we create in our lives. Join Karen Iverson Riggers and Lynn McLaughlin as they dive deep into emotional boundaries and how they play out in life.

In our world of incredible uncertainty and overwhelm, you may find yourself feeling the extremes of emotion. One moment you are holding hope that everything will work out and you witness random acts of kindness or people who are making a difference. The next moment it feels like we are self-destructing and doomsday is upon us. More than anything, know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Join us as we talk about the extreme polar emotions so many of us are feeling.

One of the most important life lessons is recognizing that it is oftentimes uncomfortable. This is especially true when it comes to sitting with our emotions and recognizing all of the ways that we avoid discomfort (Think social media, alcohol, food, "doing" obsessed, and a bazillion other ways). Becoming aware of our discomfort and pausing long enough to recognize it is important to self-awareness and growth.

Whether it is a small change or the loss of a loved one, our lives are impacted and we experience the process of letting go ... and it looks different for everyone.
