Susan David on Mastering Emotional Agility for a Fulfilling Life

So really, the context here, or the headline, is that our emotions, fundamentally, are actually helpful, that they are incredibly important guidance systems for our lives.
Ever feel like your emotions are running the show? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', Eric Zimmer chats with Susan David, a psychologist at Harvard Medical School and co-founder of The Institute of Coaching at McLean Hospital. Susan brings her expertise to the table to discuss her book, *Emotional Agility: Get Unstuck, Embrace Change, and Thrive in Work and Life*. She shares practical wisdom on how to navigate difficult emotions and use them as a guidance system.
Susan explains that emotions aren't inherently good or bad; they’re signals that can help us adapt and thrive if we approach them with curiosity and compassion. They also dive into how our values can guide our actions and the impact of social contagion on our behaviors. This episode is packed with insights for anyone looking to better understand their emotions and live a more skillful, open-hearted life.
