Examining Thoughts

A special episode in which I discuss emotions with Pastor Jeremy on the Bible Fellowship Church podcast.

Bible Fellowship Church Podcast Interview

As women we tend to ignore or push down our anger. Often we will even pretend or lie about how we feel, for fear that others won’t understand or that they’ll reject us. For far too long anger has been taboo for women to feel or talk about, which has led to shame, broken relationships, bitterness and unresolved resentments. In this episode of the Definitely. Not. Fine. podcast, May Saari candidly discusses her own difficulty with experiencing anger, as well as several common struggles that women have with this difficult emotion.

Permission to Feel Angry

There are no shortcuts when it comes to dealing with one's emotions; no fast and easy way around them, and no safe way to just "get rid of them." When we expect ourselves not to feel fear, anger, hurt or pain, we're setting ourselves up for at best, ongoing emotional instability, and at worst, an overdose. Join May Saari as she dives into the controversial topic of relying on substances for emotional management.

Relying on Substances: A Dangerous Way to Manage Emotions

There is no excuse for choosing to hurt another person. At no point does one get permission to stop using their prosocial skills, and unleashed their anger, fear, sadness or excitement on others. In this episode of the Definitely. Not. Fine. podcast, May Saari debunks the myth that prosocial skills have limits and discusses the importance of showing love and forgiveness to those who wrong us.
