FEEL DEEPLY BUT LEAD WISELY- Do your emotions ever feel like they’re running the show? In this episode of StoryMakers, we’re talking about the role of emotions in your personal growth and leadership journey. Emotions are powerful—but they’re not always truthful. They can guide us, but they shouldn’t govern us.
We’ll unpack how emotional awareness is a form of self-leadership, how the PEARL framework helps us process what we’re feeling, and how Jesus modeled emotional honesty without being emotionally led. This is a must-listen for anyone navigating big feelings, leadership pressure, or inner transformation.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Emotions are indicators, not instructors. They’re valid signals, but they shouldn’t drive your decisions.
- Every emotion is connected to a belief. If you want to shift how you feel, explore what you’re believing.
- Emotional self-leadership is a Kingdom practice. Jesus felt deeply—but He was always led by truth, not by emotion.
