Ever feel like your emotions are driving the car and you’re just clinging to the wheel? One second you’re fine, and the next you’re spiraling or shutting down without warning. This video is for anyone who’s ever felt “too much” or out of control. We’re not here to shame emotions—we’re here to understand them. You’ll learn how your brain actually changes when you start regulating your emotions, and how little shifts like pausing, naming your feelings, or setting one tiny boundary can ripple through every part of your life. No toxic positivity, just real tools, real growth. What’s one emotion you wish didn’t run your life—and what do you think it’s trying to tell you?
