Episode 99 - Name It to Tame It

The 1Life Podcast with Behka White

Episode 99 of the 1life podcast, titled "Name it to Tame it", discusses the importance of emotional intelligence. Host Behka White explains how emotions can be overwhelming and how they were viewed negatively in her childhood. She introduces the "feelings wheel" as a tool to better understand and identify emotions. The wheel is divided into three sections: the inner circle with basic emotions, the middle ring with more specific emotions, and the outer ring with nuanced emotions. By using the wheel, individuals can move from a general sense of their emotions to a more precise understanding, which can improve communication, emotional management, and self-awareness. Behka shares a personal example of how naming her resentment helped her establish healthy boundaries. She encourages listeners to explore the feelings wheel and model emotional awareness for their children.
