Oftentimes as parents we focus so much on our kid's emotions that we forget to give ourselves grace in this area. Today's guest, Liz Fosslien is an emotions expert, an illustrator, and best-selling author of two books; No Hard Feelings and Big Feelings.Liz explains why it is so hard for us as adults to focus on our own emotional needs. She also talks about why demonstrating our emotions to our children is so important and why editing them all out isn't a good idea. Liz touches on the touchy subject of regret and explains why it isn't always a bad thing.Amy and I couldn't help but feel the whole range of human emotions when we did this interview with Liz because not only does she allow that, she expects it. As women we often shove down emotions like anger or frustration when in reality those feelings should be invited. Having our kids see us work through those emotions is in fact very healthy!Meet LIZwww.fosslien.comSponsor: 10% off at BETTERHELP: http://betterhelp.com/herselfSponsor: 30% off Blissy Pillowcases: https://blissy.com/pages/herself code: HERSELFSponsor: 25% off your first order at Athena with code ‘HERSELF': https://www.athenaclub.com/Let's connect!HERSELF SHOP: https://herself-podcast-favorites.myshopify.comHERSELF PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/herselfpodcastHERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was produced and edited by @pivotballchange.
