From Suppression to the Expression of Emotions EZ Conversations

    • Mental Health

In this episode of EZ Conversations, I sit down with Paul Zolman, an advocate for emotional well-being. We delve deep into Paul's childhood, which was marked by emotional suppression and the silent build-up of inner turmoil. Growing up, Paul found himself unable to express his feelings openly, leading to a journey of self-discovery later in life.
We explore how Paul's inability to articulate emotions led to a simmering anger within him, which he carried into adulthood. Despite his success in the professional realm, he grappled with a profound sense of dissatisfaction and disconnection from his true self.
Paul recounts his pivotal realization—a turning point that propelled him to seek meaning and understand his emotional landscape. Through introspection and therapy, Paul embarked on a journey of healing, confronting the roots of his suppressed emotions and learning to express them authentically.
A highlight of our conversation is Paul's transformative experience in developing a game based on the concept of the five love languages. He shares how this creative endeavour became a powerful tool for exploring and understanding emotions for himself and others navigating similar struggles.
Throughout the episode, we unpack the importance of acknowledging and embracing emotions as integral parts of our human experience. Paul's story serves as a beacon of hope for anyone wrestling with suppressed feelings, reminding us that self-discovery and emotional fulfillment begin with a willingness to confront our innermost selves.
Please tune in to this enlightening episode of EZ Conversations as we unravel the layers of emotional suppression and uncover the transformative power of self-awareness and expression.
Paul Zolman is the international bestselling author of The Role of Love. Paul's childhood experience was the opposite of love. From that austere beginning and the distaste it formed inside him, he searched for and eventually created a method that transformed his life from anger to loving everyone. Growing up in a family of abuse, physical touch became his preferred love style only because of the regularity.
Paul Zolman has created a new way to demonstrate the principles of love languages. It's a profound way to learn all five love languages to give them away. By giving them away, your vision will improve so that you can see them coming your way and respond appropriately. A game where everyone wins!
