Summary
In today's episode, Emily is talking about when we're in those situations where we're telling ourselves: everything is fine, but it's not. Sometimes when we have a lot on our plate and we feel overwhelmed, we can deny those feelings we are experiencing. It's ok to verbalize it and not resist what it is you are feeling because resisting can make these overwhelming feelings even bigger and can lead to more stress. The goal is to not get to that point. She is also sharing pieces of a new book she is reading called The Attributes and a section of it discusses optimal performance and how it can help you be successful in all area of life. This episode is full of amazing tips that will be so beneficial for you!
In this episode we talk about:
- When everything isn't fine but you pretend it is and why this isn't a good thing
- The importance of not resisting these feelings but expressing them instead for relief
- Discussion about a book called The Attributes Emily is reading and is becoming one of her favorites
- The meaning and importance behind optimal performance
- Stimulating your brain to grow and perform optimally is so important!

| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome to the Evolve with Emily show. I'm your host, Emily Heiden, and today we are |
| 0:06.2 | going to discuss when everything's fine. It's fine. It's all fine. But it really isn't. You guys remember |
| 0:13.8 | that meme where it's like the dog inside of the house and everything's on fire, the house is on fire, |
| 0:18.0 | and he's like, it's fine. And he has a wide eye look. We've all been |
| 0:21.4 | there. We've all been in that scenario where we're telling ourselves over and over and over, |
| 0:25.5 | it's fine, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine. But what you're doing when that happens is you're |
| 0:30.9 | actually denying what you're really feeling. And sometimes the relief that you're looking for |
| 0:36.0 | is simply in you just being honest and saying |
| 0:38.8 | out loud what is actually occurring within which is everything's actually it's maybe it's fine |
| 0:45.1 | but everything's actually like not okay right now and that's okay and it's actually hard |
| 0:50.4 | sometimes just verbalizing this is hard this is. This is a lot on my plate. |
| 0:57.6 | Will give you the relief that you need to say, okay, so it's a lot. It's stressful. I'm overwhelmed, |

| 1:09.0 | phase of resisting what it is that you're actually feeling, |
| 1:12.1 | which causes more resistance, more stress, more overwhelm, and it can allow you to let that out. |
| 1:17.8 | It's kind of like imagine that there is this balloon inside of you, and it's blowing up and up and |
| 1:23.4 | up and up and up. And because you're saying, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine, I can handle all this, |
| 1:27.3 | it's okay. It's getting bigger and bigger and bigger. And then that's why eventually it comes out and all |
| 1:33.2 | a sudden you're having a stage five meltdown. You're super stressed. All of a sudden you need to |
| 1:38.8 | like run to a different city. The goal is to not get to that point. So what we can do is start to recognize when there's |
| 1:47.2 | that inner balloon that's inflating and getting bigger and bigger and bigger and stopping and pausing |
| 1:53.2 | and saying, okay, what is actually going on? Let me recognize and acknowledge the feelings that I'm |
