PERMISSION TO FEEL

Permission to Feel by Marc Brackett explores the importance of understanding, expressing, and managing emotions in healthy ways. Drawing from emotional intelligence research and personal experiences, Brackett explains how emotions influence learning, relationships, mental health, and decision-making. The book introduces the RULER method—Recognizing, Understanding, Labeling, Expressing, and Regulating emotions—to help people build emotional awareness and resilience. Brackett argues that society often teaches people to suppress emotions, leading to stress and disconnection. The core message is that giving ourselves permission to truly feel emotions is essential for personal growth, stronger relationships, better performance, and overall well-being.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/quick-reads--6471107/support.
