Love & Sadness (Part 1) ❤️😢 Welcome back to Big Emotions! We're feeling all squishy this week, as we dive into two of the strongest emotions of all. Love is powerful, joyful, and comforting - and when it changes or we feel its absence, sadness often follows. Sadness can feel heavy, but it helps us slow down, notice what matters, and deepen our connections. In this episode, we explore the softer, quieter corners of the heart where love and sadness meet. You'll hear stories of friendship, loss and connection, showing how these big emotions help us grow and understand ourselves in new ways.

Embarrassment & Pride (Part 1) 😳🏆 Welcome back to Big Emotions! This week we're hiding behind the sofa, and then jumping in front of the camera! Embarrassment and pride might seem like opposites, but they're really two sides of the same coin. Both are "self-conscious" emotions that help us reflect on how we show up in the world. In this episode, we explore the squirmy moments that make our cheeks burn and the warm glows that make our hearts swell - and how both feelings can teach us about ourselves, our values, and the people we care about.

Belonging & Independence (Part 2) 🫂🚀 Welcome back to Big Emotions! As we explored in Part 1, Belonging means finding friends and places that celebrate you for who you are.

Belonging & Independence (Part 1) 🫂🚀 Welcome back to Big Emotions! This week we're thinking about ourselves in a group, or what it feels like when we strike out on our own. We'll discover how belonging means being part of a group that accepts and values you, whereas independence is about finding your own way, making your own choices, and standing on your own two feet. In this episode, we explore how these two feelings, while different, are deeply connected - and how you can both fit in and stand out. From family to friends to magical creatures, our stories will show you how you can find your place while staying true to yourself!
