About this listen

What if emotional intelligence isn’t something we’re born with—but something we build?

In this episode of the So She Slays Podcast, we’re joined by Lori Woodley-Langendorff, emotional literacy expert, speaker, and co-founder of All It Takes, the nonprofit she launched alongside her daughter, actress Shailene Woodley and now runs with her son Tanner Woodley, the Creative Director.

We dive deep into what it really means to raise emotionally intelligent kids—while still learning how to regulate ourselves in a hustle-obsessed, emotionally draining world. From parenting power struggles to workplace emotional burnout, Lori shares tangible tools from her new book SEL Muscle Mastery that help both adults and youth build emotional resilience, self-awareness, and connection.

Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or just someone tired of pretending to be “fine,” this episode is your emotional check-in.

Topics We Cover:

  • Tools to help kids and adults self-regulate and manage emotions
  • The hidden burnout of being the “emotionally mature one”
  • How to model emotional strength without sacrificing your own needs
  • Breaking generational cycles and raising emotionally aware humans
