Why do emotions like anger, frustration, or anxiety rise so quickly, and what’s really underneath them?
In this episode of The Journey We Share, Kayleigh and Inés break down how to process emotions in a healthy, biblical way. Using insights from Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown alongside Scripture, they explore how surface-level reactions often point to deeper emotions like hurt, fear, or disappointment—and why learning to name those emotions is key to healing.
This conversation is designed to help you:
- Understand the difference between surface emotions and core feelings
- Learn how to process emotions through a biblical lens
- Practice emotional awareness and emotional intelligence as a Christian
- Use lament (as seen in the Psalms) to bring your full emotions to God
- Strengthen your relationships through better communication and empathy
Kayleigh and Inés also share real-life examples of how unprocessed emotions can impact relationships and how slowing down to identify what’s really happening in your heart can lead to deeper connection, clarity, and peace.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, anger, or feeling overwhelmed, this episode offers practical tools to help you process emotions in a way that aligns with your faith and leads to lasting transformation.
If you’re looking for a Christian perspective on emotional health, emotional intelligence, and healing, this episode will equip you to better understand your heart, grow in self-awareness, and build a faith that lasts.
