Why not reverse our perspectives? If we have positive assumptions about people with Down syndrome, they will have opportunities at school, at work, in relationships, and in other activities. And maybe these positive assumptions will become reality."

Naming your emotions (being aware of how you feel) is integral to emotional intelligence. The feelings wheel is a tool I often share with folks to help jump-start their creativity and awareness when putting words to feelings. In Atlas of the Heart, Brene Brown does us one better by explaining what those words for feelings actually mean and why naming them is useful. In this episode, I talk with Jo Linden about this beautiful book and how naming emotions frees us to be more actualized people.
