As a highly sensitive introvert, it’s easy to believe that controlling your emotions is the key to strength and peace. But here’s the truth: emotional control often leads to suppression, emotional exhaustion, and even bigger overwhelm down the road.

In this episode, I’m sharing why trying to control your emotions keeps you stuck, and how learning to regulate instead can help you feel calmer, more resilient, and more at ease in your daily life.

You’ll walk away with one simple reframe you can start using today to shift from control to regulation so you can build emotional awareness, reduce overthinking, and create more peace in your inner world.
