Episode 3119:
Alysha Jeney describes the internal argument that starts the moment she feels an emotion coming on, and the voice that tells her she is being ridiculous.

Quotes to ponder:
"Acceptance can actually become very empowering."
"When we mask our feelings and natural responses as adults, we run the risk of never being understood by anyone or ever experiencing true intimacy."
"Sometimes, you don't need to know the answer, but rather just give yourself permission to be messy."
