Wow! Thank you to Jon’s stand in this week, Jackie Shorrock... yes, a woman on Men Talking Mindfulness- for an insightful discussion about feelings! I enjoyed learning from your feminine perspective and hearing the struggles you have as a well-being guru, a wife, and as a mother of two. Here are some of the highlights in this episode: - the “need” for women to seem like they have it all together - why we bottle-up our emotions, where and how we learn this behavior. - what true leadership is and looks like - defining maturity - the power of forgiveness - the “spirals” of shame that keep us in the same place with that same BS Wow! What a joy this episode has been for me. Thank you so much Jackie - I appreciate all your insight and time. Jon and I will be back next week to continue with our next part of men and feelings. Thank you for tuning in and sharing this conversation with your community!
