In this episode, we dive deep into an incredible story of instinct, intuition, and the underestimated power of emotions.
Emotions hold a hidden intelligence that, when recognised, can guide us toward personal growth, resilience, and fulfilment. Too often, we’re taught to dismiss our emotional reactions as unreliable. Yet, as you’ll hear in today’s episode, shutting them out can leave us disconnected from life’s true richness.
Tom shares a personal journey of turning away from emotions, embracing reason as a safeguard, only to discover the profound cost of ignoring that deeper layer of experience. It was only by welcoming emotions back in that life’s depth and true personal growth came into focus.
Learn how to move beyond simply managing emotions to truly mastering them as powerful guides. Embrace the wisdom of your emotional mind, and discover what you’ve been missing.
