EP0012 - Emotions Are Data

In this episode of The Better Path Podcast, we explore emotional fluency—the skill of naming and understanding your emotions instead of being ruled by them. You’ll learn why emotions are data, not directives, how expanding your emotional vocabulary gives you more power to respond instead of react, and why cultures from the Stoics to modern psychology have treated emotions as sources of wisdom. With practical steps to check in throughout your day and go beyond the usual “happy” or “stressed,” you’ll discover how small shifts in language can create big changes in resilience, relationships, and self-awareness.
