This week on Ask Kati Anything (ep. 225) licensed therapist Kati Morton explains how to stop intellectualizing and actually feel our feelings, and she digs into grief and how we can process it. Then she talks about why we can feel like our mental illnesses are made up or exaggerated because we haven't had a trauma or big event, ways we can healthily express our anger, and how she defines an eating disorder relapse. Finally, she walks us through the ways she decides what's the human condition and what's a symptom of a mental illness. 1. How do I stop intellectualizing my feelings and feel them? 01:23 2. Hey Kati! I was curious if you could talk about grief as an emotion, and how to cope with it and ways to help process it. Before therapy, I could not name any emotions, and I've gotten so much better at it. In fact, unbeknownst to me, I've actually always been quite the adept feeler of emotions— in the sense that I can find them in my body, I can talk about how they feel and the directions they move within me and through me... 08:27 3. Hello Kati, I often feel my MDD and GAD diagnosis is not warranted and it's 'all in my head' because I have not experienced any major negative life events or traumas. This has prevented me from discussing the things that I believe could be contributing to my symptoms because they don't feel important enough... 25:16 4. Hi Kati, I was wondering if you could talk about healthy ways to express anger. I come from a culture where expressing anger is shameful, especially for women. So my anger is as scary as fire flames for me. However, I have noticed my binge eating is fuelled by my unexpressed anger. So, can you please teach me some techniques about handling anger. Thanks for all your amazing work. 34:13 5. Hi Kati! Hope you're doing well. I am wondering how a relapse in an eating disorder is defined. Is there a clinical-based definition or is it more of a gray area? Does it mean meeting the diagnostic criteria for an eating disorder diagnosis once again... 40:47 6. How do you figure out what's just 'the human condition' or a personality trait and what's an actual symptom? 55:08 PUBLISHED BOOKS Traumatized https://geni.us/Bfak0j Are u ok? https://geni.us/sva4iUY Join this channel & access more perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzBYOHyEEzlkRdDOSobbpvw/join ONLINE THERAPY While I do not currently offer online therapy, BetterHelp can connect you with a licensed, online therapist: https://betterhelp.com/kati (enjoy 10% off your first month) SOCIAL X: https://twitter.com/KatiMorton TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@katimorton Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/katimorton1/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katimorton Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/katimorton1/ Patreon: https://www.katimorton.com/kati-morton-patreon/ PARTNERSHIPS Linnea Toney linnea@underscoretalent.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/askkatianything/support
We've learned that narcs don't generally recover because of their "creative narration" abilities. Now, let's talk about some of the ways they spin those stories. Today, we start our examination of self-defense mechanisms by looking at the purposes of Intellectualization and Rationalization. Then, we ask the question: SO HOW SMART ARE THEY? And discuss the distinct Thought Processing limitations of both Grandiose and Vulnerable Narcissists. Want the full story?

Over-intellectualizing occurs when we focus on analyzing our emotions from a distance, at the expense of experiencing them. However, we create and manifest from our identities and our authenticity. If our identity is still tied up in old emotions then we aren't living authentically. In order to process emotions effectively, we need to balance both feeling and analyzing. Feeling emotions vs intellectualizing emotions. If you've ever asked how to stop intellectualizing emotions? This episode is for you.

In this inspiring episode of Flow Over Fear, Adam Hill sits down with leadership coach Zovig Garboushian to discuss her journey from corporate marketing to founding Boldness Ablaze to help leaders break through personal barriers. Zovig shares insights from over 25 years of experience in brand marketing, management and leadership development. Zovig shares insightful strategies for acknowledging emotions, getting curious about fears, and reframing limiting stories. They also dive into overcoming imposter syndrome and advancing women in leadership. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: Her transition from corporate to coaching Relating to feeling incongruent in a role that clouds self-understanding How exploring emotions through reflection helps self-awareness Strategies like naming feelings, pausing when escalated, and curiosity Moving from NYC to outside Seattle for more nature and quiet Intellectualizing emotions can help "right size" responses Experience with feedback to be "less direct" in performance reviews Finding hybrid approaches instead of all-or-nothing limitations Trusting ourselves more Trusting intuition knows more than we realize Episode Highlights: [09:20] Overcoming Imposter Syndrome Zovig discusses struggling with defining her own self-worth and capabilities separate from her professional roles. This led to self-doubt and feeling like a fraud – classic symptoms of imposter syndrome. Through coaching and personal development work, Zovig was able to overcome feelings of not being enough and reconnect with her intrinsic self-worth. She emphasizes the importance of trusting our own intuition over external definitions that can breed internalized insecurities. Zovig's experience highlights strategies for addressing imposter syndrome through self-awareness and rejecting limiting beliefs about identity being tied to professional achievements alone. [25:33] Developing Self-Awareness Through Emotional Exploration Carving out time each day for emotional reflection, even just a few minutes, cultivates understanding of our inner world in a way that supports personal and professional growth. Whether through journaling, meditation, or conversations, we gain clarity on what we're truly feeling beneath surface reactions. When we can name an emotion, it empowers us to then choose our response rather than be carried away by an unchecked reaction. Reflection uncovers layers of emotion and thought patterns influencing our behaviors and provides distance from strong feelings, creating an opportunity for insight. [50:53] Intellectualizing Emotions to “Right Size” Responses Our intellect is a tool we can utilize to place emotions in proper context. By rationally pondering the root and size of a reaction, we can reduce the intensity and acknowledge when a response is disproportionate to the trigger. This highlights how both heart and mind can work in tandem to move through feelings in a balanced manner.

In this episode, Alex covers a myriad of topics! He starts by reflecting on his complex nostalgia since his time working in Spain. Then he gets into a recent blunder in Canada where a parliament member inadvertently had the crowd celebrate a 98 year old Ukrainian veteran that turned out to be a fighter for a Nazi regime. Later, Alex celebrates the potential, tentative deal that could end the Writer's Strike in Hollywood. Finally, Alex takes a deep dive into why the civil service is important why MAGA allies are looking to intellectualize Trump-era lies that can help them gut the civil service to retain power.
Ever wonder why we often shun the very thing that could bring us relief - healing? We're taking you on a transformative journey to uncover the truth behind this paradox in our latest podcast episode, where we dissect the reasons why we dodge healing, and how these barriers limit our personal growth. We're peeling back the layers of self-avoidance and distraction, aiding you to discover your innate power that has been stifled by pain. Join us as we journey back to the creation of Love Frequency, a beacon in my personal battle against loss, that has since morphed into a platform helping others metamorphose their heartache into fortitude.We'll then divert our conversation towards the 70-20-10 model of learning, and its profound implications in our healing journey. We'll debunk the concept of intellectualizing as a distraction, and shed light on the importance of personal experiences, interactions with others, and novel experiences as catalysts for true growth and healing. This episode culminates in a discussion about embracing love as the ultimate answer to our woes, and how investing in oneself could open doors to your highest, freest, and unedited self. We're challenging you to take control of your healing journey, to find your power, and to share this journey, because at the end of the day, your story could be the lifeline someone else is desperately seeking.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------0:00 The Avoidance of Healing9:54 The Impact of Distractions on Healing22:42 Embracing Love and Self-Transformation--------- EPISODE RESOURCES ---------70-20-10 ModelSupport the show: : C O N N E C T W I T H M E : :TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@l_vefrequency Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/l_vefrequency/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lvefrequency/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@l_vefrequency About the Host: songwhip.com/niablk
In this Saturday special, Alex goes into another issue that keeps him up at night. Alex firmly believes that Donald Trump has a decent chance of becoming president once again. However, there is now an intellectual side of the MAGA movement that includes think-tanks, media organizations, and actual policies to go along with America First politics. It seems like the right is focused on making Trump's second term more effective and less chaotic. Alex argues that this is horrible. He goes into Schedule F and how its legal theory could purge the civil service in a second Trump administration. Then he goes into the strange dynamics that occur in authoritarianism and fascism. There seems to be a contradiction between freedom and control; however, many fascists claim to be using authoritarian powers to bring freedom to their base. It does seem like the right is moving in that direction and Alex worries that a second Trump term could be really horrendous.
Hey guys, I'm doing an off the cuff solo episode on how we cope during stress and what that can look like. Recently I went through an extremely hard month of loss of a loved one and I wanted to talk about what stress can do to us to intellectualize our emotions and how compartmentalizing our feelings in order to just keep moving forward can really bite us in the end if we don't look at them now.Find Us:www.loveyouevenmore.comwww.jackiebrubaker.comInstagram: @loveyouevenmorepodcast @jackiebrubaker Support the show
When it comes to change and growth, knowledge is inferior to embodiment. *gasp!* It's true - most of the information we tend to consume focuses on quick fixes and the thrill that comes from acquiring information. But science has shown that knowledge alone rarely leads to true transformation. The necessary component to lasting change is embodiment. In today's episode, I coach on what it means to be embodied, how you know once you've actually embodied something new, and how to be aware of the signs that you're simply intellectualizing new information.

Feelings are hard—to experience, to understand. Most of us tend to stay on the thinking and not feeling side of things.How does that impact you in business? Truth be told, it's not pretty sometimes nor is it easy to manoeuvre through the roller coaster ride we unintentionally hop on. In today's episode, I share how it showed up for one of my clients and what I helped her do to conquer her habit of sideswiping them.Plus, there's a challenge at the end that would be good to take on especially this time if year. - - - - - FEATURED IN TODAY'S EPISODE: Schedule a free 45-minute consult call with me HERE Download The Feelings Tracker HEREHaven't left a review yet?

In this QID reunion, Dhruv, Aryan, and Amartya welcome back Lord Sanjeet to discuss a film that itself feels like a reinvigoration of the Hollywood spectacle. Critically, though, from a revisionist African American perspective. The four discuss the different degrees to which they each love and/or admire the film. Regardless, they agree that it is the most original piece of Blockbuster Cinema to come out of Hollywood in recent times.

The feelings of denial and disassociation when experiencing trauma and the death of a loved one can be scary and unpredictable. We don't need to automatically bounce back and start feeling “better” after a traumatic event. In this episode I share more about my relationship with my grandma, the chaotic story of speaking at her funeral, and how it's okay to feel lost + empty in the unknown.
Hey Mind Grind Fam! As the world has changed with technology and more mental health awareness, we're all getting more information about mental health terms than ever before. This is great...AND it means we all know the catch phrases like "self-care", but do we really understand them in an integrated way in our lives? We have intellectualized wellness, but are we embodying it? For example: are you saying you self-care because it's common lingo or have you been able to give yourself meaningful self-care (see our self-care episode for tips)? Do you tend to talk about your life experiences like you are always fine? Even after a hard moment? Do you tend to over-explain things rather than slow down and feel your feelings? Are you quick to use big psychological terms when talking about yourself or your life? Is it difficult for you to be vulnerable? Are you present with yourself as you speak?... If these questions are feeling at all relatable, this is the podcast for you. In this episode we explain what Intellectualization and Embodiment are and why it is beneficial to moving beyond Intellectualizing into Embodiment. It is not the easiest shift, but there are many gains for this transition: one of them being moving out of your head and into your body; your home for your life. Find the time, come and unwind to The Mind Grind! - Dana and Beth

Stupidity has been intellectualized to be an appeal to authority. Chinese defectors inform US intelligence what we have all known: Covid is a bioweapon. The fake news machine has been wrong about every single thing. The Foo Fighters rock and roll for The Man. Black Rock becomes the world's largest landlord.

Welcome! I am delighted to have you join us today! Please allow me to introduce Please allow me to re-introduce you to Kirsten Frey, as a former police officer, has walked the path of loss many times, both personally and professionally. Death of loved ones, divorce, miscarriage, and the loss of colleagues to violence and suicide. Each time she used the only tools she had ever been taught…to be strong and grieve alone.

On this episode of Damaged Goods Podcast, Jake The Snake's guest is author, technician, & speaker Telisa D. The two discuss not only connecting with the readers of your work, but the connection that can be made amongst fellow authors writing about similar subjects with similar experiences, how hot the damn lights on when you're on stage speaking or performing, taking your own responsibility when it comes to what media and entertainment you take in, and why people have more choice & control with that they they acknowledge, and why sometimes you have to say "F@*# 'em".

Imagine if you could completely and totally connect with God. What if you could experience the deepest most profound sense of love, connection and bliss you have ever imagined? Mike's done it and he can tell you what he's about to share could be both uncomfortable and VERY controversial, so fasten your seatbelts and keep reading... Gay Hendricks and Mike Koenigs have a real doozy episode for you this week on The Big Leap podcast... This is Mike's most vulnerable episode and public share to date. Here's what Mike had to say. "Three months ago, I wouldn't consider publicly sharing this - but it's too important not to. A few weeks ago I was invited to join in a very sacred ceremony led by several medical doctors and shamans on ancient Native American grounds in the New Mexico desert. It's an experience called 5-MeO-DMT. This is a psychedelic of the tryptamine class found in a wide variety of plant species, and at least one toad species. What was it like? Terrifying. Awe-inspiring. Beautiful. Pure love. A direct connection to God or creator. Out of body. Complete elimination of a sense of self and ego. Melting away any emotional and physical pain. A rocketship to pre-creation. In the “mind” of God. Before matter, time, space and light. Then... I woke up to a blood curdling, primal scream of emotion. Of love, fear and awe. That scream that woke me up… It was ME. It was as if my “animal” was reuniting with its spirit. All of this happened over a period of 25 minutes. Imagine pouring an entire planet into a thimble. That's what that scream was - the human brain and body simply cannot contain a universe that's billions of years old in it's “container.” Intellectualizing this experience is a disservice to something very ancient and very sacred. As I sobbed and laughed and cried and laughed some more, I never felt so much divine love and connection than in that moments that had just passed. It was the most profound experience of my life. There's a tremendous reawakening and resurgence of psychedelics, entheogens and other plant based materials that is attracting the world's leading scientists, physicists, astrophysicists, doctors, quantum scientists and the medical community. If you do some research, you'll find major colleges and hospitals are investing heavily in using psychedelics to reduce or eliminate mental illness. Tim Ferriss donated $3mm to the Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic & Consciousness Research and Imperial College London. I don't regard 5-MeO-DMT as a drug. It is a profound sacrament and if there was ever something that was divinely created it is this. Despite the world's governments and leaders creating the “War on Drugs” and associating “drugs that kill you” (alcohol, tobacco, heroin, cocaine and much of the pills that are consumed) with “drugs that can save and change your life” (5MEO, psilocybin, MDMA), this is ancient. Amazonian natives have been using entheogens, so did the Greeks, Egyptians, Vedics and other cultures for millennia. When I was 18, I tried smoking marijuana and it sent me into an absolute pit of terror that to this day I still have massive trauma associated with it. I stayed away from all substances. But to my uneducated mind that didn't know the difference between a recreational drug and something that's deeply spiritual, like 5-MeO-DMT… I didn't have the ability to discern and I didn't want to trigger an old trauma.So what was I looking for? Why did I decide to partake in this kind of medicine?There wasn't any ONE reason. I wasn't seeking anything really.I really wanted to explore what I was hearing about the substance and trust me… I did my research. I kept hearing people like Joe Rogan and Tim Ferris talk about it for years. I met Rick Doblin through a friend, the founder of MAPS, which is an association that does profound work on the benefits of psychedelics and how they help soldiers with massive PTSD and women who survived horrible captivity and rape, walk away and not require medication or additional treatment.This year, I felt as though I had reached a point in my life where I was psychologically prepared. I had been feeling much more love, connection and depth in all of my relationships. I had reached a state in my masculinity of understanding what courage, emotion, deep connections, authenticity and being fully present and vulnerable REALLY meant. I felt like this was the next step in my journey of growth as a human being.The setting was a big factor too. It took place on Native American grounds in New Mexico underneath a massive, multi-centuries old cottonwood tree. I was supervised by doctors who are very, very experienced in the substance, so I felt like I was in good hands with proper care before and after.The entire experience lasts (depending on the person and the dose) between 15 and 30 minutes (compared to other plant medicines like Ayahuasca, that can last for hours). It's very, very fast and most people who experienced it in this space said it was like a rocket ship.Now WHY am I sharing this with you? Why is it so important?Because after the experience, I happen to believe that a TOOL like this one could actually bring more people together.More compassion.More empathy.More understanding.More connection.It's a tool.And I'll go on record that the sense of compassion, oneness and connection it provides would create a KNOWING that we are all part of the divine.And if the world's leaders, politicians and change makers could experience this ancient gift…There would be more peace on this planet.There's more to the story!To hear more about the MOST profound and enlightening experience of my entire life, tune in here!Whether you agree with using these sacred, ancient tools or not… you can't argue that it's not a fascinating subject and hopefully you'll learn a little something too!”

Dr. Amer F. Ahmed holds a rare perspective on masculinity, forged by his Indian Muslim upbringing, plus extensive worldly studies. His brilliance shines as we touch on topics such as masculine social justice, the role of community in initiation, and re-defining the warrior stereotype. We go far beyond identifying the problem, and dive into solution mode. Awareness and education are key, and as a professor and speaker, Amer is the man for the job. Show Notes: Amer's unique experience being raised in Ohio with an immigrant and Muslim philosophy. Preparation for rites of passage is as important as the experience Why elderhood is not based on age Manhood begins when he declares it for himself, and the community reflects it back. In our colonized reality, there is an over emphasis on the individual defining this journey, vs the indigenous model of communal experiences. The construct of “whiteness” and its role in American male culture. Culture is comprised of what is sacred, though it is rapidly becoming commercialized Patriarchy is a misrepresentation of power, it's an attempt to deny the fact that women have unique powers. Rape of the land and indigenous women are not a coincidence Are all men responsible for patriarchy? What does a healthy masculine look like? How warrior energy is mis-represented by our dominant society, mainly by viewing it from the purely physical perspective Differences between male to male intimacy across cultures. Intellectualizing social justice movements can lead to a disconnection. What can men do about racism, sexism, and these large cultural issues? Why creating space for men to be real with one another is vital How to Connect to Amer: Instagram @dramerfahmed Website - Amerfahmed.com - check out his upcoming engagements and find more ways to connect!

Back on episode 71 of the show, Rebecca Ching and I talked about a therapeutic approach called Internal Family Systems, and how it can help us re-frame the way we deal with big emotional challenges. One of the things she mentioned in our conversation really resonated with me, and I wanted to dig a little deeper into it a little more today. Rebecca talked about how many people these days are stuck living only in their head, totally cut off from their emotions. We talked more in that episode about the research and the reasons behind WHY that’s happening, which I think is fascinating. If you didn’t listen that to that conversation yet, definitely check that out too. I’ll link our conversation up in the show notes. But this experience of detaching from FEELING our emotions and relying on our heads alone to process what’s going on for us emotionally was something I could really relate to. I’ve spent most of my life INTELLECTUALIZING my emotions. Up until ten years ago or so, I didn’t really FEEL them in my body or in my soul at all. I mostly saw my emotions as some puzzle that needed to be figured out or solved. And in order to do that, I needed to keep some distance from them. I needed to bury them a little before I could look at them objectively. I relied heavily on trying to put a positive spin on things, on “letting things go”, and analyzing what was happening, rather than actually FEELING the emotions that were coming up for me. But in doing that, I really was just suppressing, and often completely invalidating, what was really happening inside of me. At the time, I truly didn’t realize I wasn’t feeling those emotions. I just thought I was “being mature” or “staying in control” or “expressing myself in a healthy way.” Those were all fancy ways of saying that I was avoiding the real pain of experiencing my own feelings.

What I love about doing this show is that I come across all sorts of new philosophies and topics that we may experience day to day but we not realize how common it is. Intellectualizing our emotions is very much one of those concepts. That means pushing away our feelings, shoving them down, or downplaying them for the sake of social niceties. But there are harmful side effects to suppressing how we really feel or assuming that we are expressing ourselves when we're not. This podcast episode covers all of these topics and is heavily influenced by this article: https://nickwignall.com/intellectualized-emotions/ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dopeamine/message
Many of us assume that we automatically feel our feelings, but unfortunately it’s not that simple. There are so many ways society encourages us to deny, avoid and repress emotions. Megan Jane Soutar is a self healing guide who I have had the honor of knowing as a friend and client for many years. As Megan describes in our interview, her transformation has taken her from someone who numbed emotion, to someone who intellectualized emotion, then finally to someone who could FEEL their emotions, fully. And in this transformation Megan has come to working with others in truly feeling their feelings too. Episode Highlights: 1 min - Marks introduction, dealing with hard emotions. 6 mins - Introduction to Megan Souter and her role as a self healing guide. 15 mins - Numbing emotions instead of feeling them. 17 mins - Megan’s experience of depression in childhood and living with mental illness within the family. 21 mins - Living within a disruptive household. 27 mins - Intellectualizing emotions to avoid feeling them. 31 mins - The safety to have your own experience and emotions. 39 mins - Megan’s experience of bullying throughout school. 46 mins - Living at your highest level of integrity. 50 mins - Dealing with major life changes and coming off of medications. 59 mins - How Megan is using her story in her life and work today. 1hr 7 mins - Shaming our feelings. 1hr 18 mins - Stepping out of the story we have been assigned.

Many people fall into a mental trap when working on themselves. They think, “If I know it, I can change it.” Yes, self-awareness is critical because you can’t change what you’re not aware of, but nothing really changes if it stays at the level of the intellect. When you have a mental understanding, that information fits within your existing belief system, becoming a strategy. Many of us in insecurely attached relationships tend to take this new information and apply it to the object of our desire. We don’t necessarily apply it to ourselves emotionally. Change comes from feeling, not thinking. It’s like listening to this podcast. Either you’re going to take an emotional risk or you’re going to say, “Oh, yes, I get it. That makes sense! Maybe I’ll try that later when it’s safe.” Unfortunately waiting for “safe” means waiting forever. If you don’t embrace the fear and discomfort that comes with emotional risk, you’re just playing a game of mental ping pong. Intellectualizing your life leads to repeating the same things over and over. In an insecurely attached relationship you will go over the same dynamic when you intellectualize or strategize change. And change is an illusion when it remains in someone else’s hands… not your own. Many of us are willing to take mental risks, but not emotional ones. So what’s an emotional risk? Speaking your truth; showing the real you; expressing what you’ve been repressing; detaching from outcomes. The greatest job, relationship, etc. won’t matter if you mentally manage your life. That isn’t where fulfillment stems from. If you do it emotionally, it will be different.
