In this episode of Field Notes from Within, we explore what we often try to outrun: difficult emotions. We unpack the three common ways we mishandle them: judging, suppressing, or over-identifying, and offer a gentler, braver path. What if our emotions aren’t the problem, but our resistance to them is? This short reflection invites you to turn toward your feelings with curiosity, not shame, and to remember that being fully human isn’t a failure, but a form of courage.
