Emotions. We all have them. It's part of being human.

However, some folks are really good at not showing them or letting them out at work. Others feel challenged dealing with the myriad of emotions that rise up throughout the day.

Which way is right? And how do we start to manage our emotions in the workplace in a way that doesn't siphon our humanity along with it?


These questions, and more, are what Kim and Louise dive into in this episode of Kickass Conversations. Whether you're used to being the "emotional one" or you have a team member who seems to have more emotions than you know what to do with, this is a great episode to tune into.


This week, our guest is Kim Downey, Feng Shui Advisor and the owner of Elevate Your Space Feng Shui (previously known as Lake Life Feng Shui).  Kim works with clients across the globe, helping them to identify areas in their homes and offices that may be holding them back from creating their best lives.  She is like a fairy godmother who helps you turn stagnant and lifeless areas into rooms full of active and healthy chi. Come learn a thing or two about how your environment can help support the emotions of your entire team!
