i'm trying to say no more often. i love the author anne lamott. I find them very helpful in terms of thinking about how to work through difficult emotions and show up with kindness for other people. What's something, whether it's a book, a movie, a piece of music, an idea, that has made you a better humon? Can i say this tod cast, sure. But you mean, the first person in the history of our interviews to say it, you can certainly say it. Liz foslin: Just acknowledging who i am is helping me be less frazzled and be more present.

Humans: we've got Big Feelings. From happiness to regret, delight to frustration, we all experience a rollercoaster of emotions. But while it's become more acceptable to talk about and even embrace them, it still feels like there is a stigma around admitting that you're grappling with a less-than-positive feeling. Mollie West Duffy (Chris’s wife!) and Liz Fosslien (not Chris’s wife!) are the co-authors of two celebrated books about feelings, “No Hard Feelings: The Secret Power of Embracing Emotions At Work” and “Big Feelings: How to Be Okay When Things Are Not Okay.” In this episode, they share thoughtful insights on the across-the-board importance of talking about our emotions as well as offer tips on how to identify, manage, and learn from the big feelings that make us all human.
