Our emotions are God-given signals designed to guide us toward greater self-reflection, self-awareness, and spiritual growth. But how do we learn to manage our feelings instead of letting them control us?

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to maintain emotional health, whether you tend to suppress your emotions or feel them intensely.
• Practical strategies for staying emotionally regulated as a parent.
• How relationships contribute to our emotional well-being — for better or worse — and how to improve this.
