    You Can't Out-Think A Feeling

    In this episode of Get Psyched, we’re diving deep into the emotional toolkit you actually need to navigate real life—with a little humor, a lot of honesty, and zero judgment (okay, maybe some pet peeves were named). If you’ve ever tried to logic your way out of a big feeling (hi, we all have), this one’s for you. We explore why it’s so much easier to tell a dramatic internal story than to simply name what we feel… and how identifying the feeling underneath the story leads straight to the need that actually wants your attention. Spoiler: you’re only as “needy” as your unmet need, and there’s nothing wrong with needing anything. You’ll learn how to decode emotions, meet your needs with compassion, and finally stop trying to out-think a feeling (because, really, how’s that working?). Plus, we break down what’s worth remembering, what’s worth releasing, and how to build emotional clarity that actually sticks. The girls explore: 🎙️ How feelings point directly to your needs 🎙️ Why storytelling is easier than naming your emotions 🎙️ Turning feelings into clarity around unmet needs 🎙️ “Needy” as a myth—unmet needs as the truth 🎙️ Practical ways to meet your needs 🎙️ Why you can’t think your way out of a feeling 🎙️ What to remember, what to forget, and how to tell the difference Perfect for anyone craving emotional intelligence, self-awareness, communication skills, mind-body connection, and honest personal growth.
