"Living as modern humans we are disconnected, out of place and don't belong in the same way as other species""If you're feeling called to do something larger than you - you should follow that"SummaryTodays guest Elspeth Hay experienced a rewriting of all she had known when when one day she was grappling with the frustration that the area she calls home didn't have the ability to create more small scale, localised food systems because they were landlocked by the ocean and surrounded by established Oak forests. Until one day her belief and her story was challenged when she learned that we can eat acorns. From there stories she'd believed her whole life began to unravel. Not just about acorns but about the way humans have pattered ourselves to our current day reality.This process led her to write a book titled feed us with trees. The journey of the book creation took her on an ancestral tour from New England USA to the UK, introduced her to indigenous wisdom keepers, gave her the courage to challenge the system we know to be true and hold empathy for the courageous wisdom knowledge holders that have kept nature based skills and interaction alive.Elspeth is a is a wonderful story teller and with this skill alone I'm sure she is one of those humans who we need as the bridge to wherever it is we are headed."Our story is totally made up & doesn't follow any natural laws so we can look to other influences to rewrite it'Loved this?

Emotional intelligence isn't about being calm, Zen, or turning into some emotionless monk who never gets triggered.It's about knowing exactly what's going on inside you before things blow up—and using that intel to stop fights before they even start.You know those moments when someone says that thing, and you instantly feel yourself getting defensive, angry, or ready to snap back with a killer comeback?Yeah. Been there. A lot.But here's what I've learned: when you've got emotional intelligence on your side, you stop reacting on autopilot.You stop taking everything so personally. And instead you choose how to respond.In this video, I'm breaking down how emotional intelligence helps you in arguments, disagreements, and everyday drama, and how it can actually bring more calm, connection, and (let's be real) fewer screaming matches into your life.So if you're tired of being dragged into unnecessary arguments, feeling misunderstood, or just wish you could stay chill when everyone else is losing it—this one's for you.

Have you ever been around someone who's like, “Emotional intelligence is being all soft, sweet, and floating around in a cloud of feelings all day…” and you're like, “Aww, that's cute. NO.”Emotional intelligence is not about being calm all the time.It's not about never getting angry, or letting your kids walk all over you.And it's definitely not about sitting in a circle holding hands and talking about your feelings 24/7.It is about knowing yourself, managing your reactions, showing up with empathy, and staying motivated—even when everything's a hot mess.And honestly? There's still so much misconception around EI, especially in the parenting world.“You're raising snowflakes!”, “You must talk about emotions all day!” Umm. Who even has time for that?!So here's the truth: emotional intelligence helps you make smarter, more efficient, more connected, more productive… like, everything you actually want.And it has nothing to do with floating on clouds or never saying no to your kids lol.If you've ever thought, “Am I just too emotional,” or “Everyone says I need to toughen up,” take a seat!!Emotional intelligence isn't weakness—it's power.Enjoy!

I'm coming in hot with a truth bomb that might just flip your parenting, your self-awareness, and your whole emotional vibe on its head.Who's heard that we must learn to “control our emotions”? ME. A million times...Newsflash: This is TERRIBLE advice.Yep, I said it. So if you've ever gritted your teeth, stuffed your feelings down, or told your kid to “just calm down”, you're not alone.We've all been fed this myth that emotional intelligence means being cool, calm, and collected 24/7. Like some sort of emotionless robot with a gratitude journal?! Ok then.But here's the thing: emotions aren't meant to be controlled, they're meant to be understood.Every feeling you have is like a little post-it note from your inner world.Anger? “Hey, your boundary just got steamrolled.”Anxiety? “Something feels off, look closer.”Disappointment? “You were hoping for something, and it didn't land.”Emotions aren't interruptions. They're INTEL.So today, I'm diving into how emotional intelligence is actually about tuning in, not shutting down. I'll show you how to listen to your emotions (without getting stuck in them), use them to guide better decisions, and teach your kids to do the same.Because once you stop shoving emotions aside and start decoding what they're telling you?Everything. Gets. Easier.

“You are not alone.”We hear this phrase often—but truly feeling less alone is something else entirely. Real connection begins when we share our stories, speak our truths, and let ourselves be seen. Few people champion this idea more powerfully than today's guest, Dr. Jessica Zucker. Jessica is a psychologist specializing in reproductive and maternal mental health, and is the author of “I Had a Miscarriage: A Memoir, a Movement”. After experiencing her own miscarriage, Jessica launched the now-viral #IHadAMiscarriage campaign—a deeply personal yet universal invitation for women to speak their truths on their own terms. Her next book, “Normalize It: Upending the Silence, Stigma, and Shame That Shape Women's Lives”, is out on April 22nd.In this episode, Erin and Jessica explore the silence, shame, and societal expectations around grief, body image, motherhood and many other fundamental aspects of women's lives—and how sharing our stories can help dismantle them. We discuss:Why storytelling is an act of liberation—and how speaking openly about miscarriage and other stigmatized experiences builds healing and connectionHow silence around common women's experiences like infertility, illness, menopause, and abortion perpetuates shame and isolationThe problem with comparative suffering—and why women often minimize their pain by telling themselves “others have it worse”How girlhood teaches us to self-silence and be “good,” and the long-term impact this has on authenticity and self-expressionWhy it's essential to talk to kids early and openly about bodies, sexuality, and emotionsThe cultural cost of silence—and how creating space for women to share their whole truths can shift the narratives we've been taught to hide OUR GUEST: Jessica Zucker is a Los Angeles-based psychologist specializing in reproductive health and the author of the award-winning book I HAD A MISCARRIAGE: A Memoir, a Movement. Jessica is the creator of the viral #IHadaMiscarriage campaign. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, New York Magazine, Vogue, and Harvard Business Review, among others.
