Unveiled

Building Emotional Intelligence for a Fulfilling Life & How to Decode Judgement of Others

Emotions play a vital role in shaping our lives and skipping over them can hold us back. Through personal stories, like helping my daughter navigate feelings of exclusion, we unravel how emotional mastery can transform our reactions and enhance our understanding of ourselves.

In the face of social challenges and people-pleasing tendencies, primal emotional responses can leave us feeling disconnected and unsafe. We tackle these instincts with techniques like unconscious reprogramming, neuroscience, and finding humor / logic in the situation.

Drawing from my own journey of self-reflection, I highlight how unresolved emotions can manifest physically, like my experience with carpal tunnel syndrome linked to anger. Through visualization and energetic work, I demonstrate the power of addressing emotions within 48 hours to prevent health issues and maintain a positive mindset.

Speaker 1:

Welcome to Unveiled the podcast. I'm your host, angela Christian, and I help you with unveiling your true self by peeling away the layers that society placed on you. I do this with a combination of neuroscience, energetics and ancient spiritual wisdom. I went from underpaid and overworked in corporate America to launching a six-figure company that continues to grow. I went from toxic relationships to being happy and single for over a year as I worked and continue to work on becoming the best version of myself, and so much more. My greatest passion is to help women and mothers heal, transform and become the highest versions of themselves. Heal, transform and become the highest versions of themselves. As I continue to grow and expand my intuitive knowledge and unique wisdom, I'll be including you on my journey to millions, so let's get into it.

Speaker 2:

Welcome back to Unveiled, okay. So today we're going to continue talking about emotions and also judging others. I will say be careful when you decide to master something. Because, oh my god, I chose to master my emotions even more. So like I felt pretty good, like I had a pretty good handle on my emotions from studying unconscious reprogramming, nervous system regulation, doing a lot of somatic work, spiritual work, all of that right. So I felt like I had a pretty good handle on my emotions. But then I decided to take emotions mastery with Alessandro Giannetti and, oh my, it's taken me to a whole new level.

Speaker 2:

And, as I kind of alluded to on Instagram today, if you saw my story post, I said the most frustrating thing about emotions is not what you think, or something like that. I don't know exactly what I said, but what I meant is that our emotions are a direct reflection of us. So, even when we're feeling pissed off which, believe me, I have been on one in the last 24 hours even when you're feeling pissed off at someone, when you understand this from a higher perspective, from an energetic, from a higher perspective, from an energetic spiritual, scientific perspective, you realize it all comes back to you. So it's very empowering but also frustrating because I'm like, damn it, this is all me okay, but I still I don't bypass my emotions. I'm going to pull out a couple of examples from the last few days and I'll give you some of the techniques that I use. So in my program right now called Unveiled it's a membership I'm looking at it more as like a vault of information because I'm going to be continuing to add specific master classes to it each month. So, like last month it was on magnetism, I gave you ingredients on how to create sexual draw. This month it's all about emotion. So I'm really taking you through all the steps, all the techniques. So if you like today's episode, definitely join Unveiled Right now. It's still a very low price. It's only $77 a month. I'm going to start pulling out the masterclasses and selling them separately as well. So if you ever want to buy a masterclass on its own and kind of test it out, you can do that. But you can purchase a month and just like check it out right, can cancel at any time. Unless you purchase for the year, you get a discount. If you purchase for the year, you get like two months free. So in that case you would be committed to a year.

Speaker 2:

But, and I will say before I go forward, for the first 15 people that join unveiled, I'm going to offer you one 15 minute telegram check-in with me per month where you just tell me privately, like, what you're experiencing, what you're going through, and I will coach you. It'll be a specific day of the month. So, for example, I'm doing away with the live calls every month because I realized I would rather devote that 45 minutes to creating more audio for you right program. But I can only offer this to a small amount of people. It would be about 15 minutes of personalized coaching per month. But I'm charging right now $88 for a 15-minute coaching call. So you can book, like a telegram coaching call with me for 15 minutes, which is one question, for 15 minutes. Or or you can just join Unveiled and for $77 a month you're going to get all of my masterclasses from the past, from the current, and that personalized check-in, but only for the first 15. So I will share when it's reached that maximum, because I obviously can't spend the entire month on my telegram, because I obviously like have to cut it off. It's one-on-one, you know. So anyway, let's get into this. So the first example I'm going to share is with my daughter and again I go through like step-by-step techniques, inside Unveiled, but I'm just going to show you. I kind of I use my intuition to pull out certain techniques based on the circumstance. So this is something that you could ask me on like a telegram check-in is like you know, I have this going on or my child has this going on. What do you recommend? And I can tap in intuitively and also just based on my experience and knowledge, like help you figure out what techniques would work.

Speaker 2:

So my sweet little nine-year-old daughter, she was having an issue with her friends where I've noticed she has a lot of issues with her friends where she feels left out. She feels like they are doing stuff without her or that they leave her behind. So on Friday night at eight o'clock I said okay, off your electronics, because they all play like Roblox together. Off your electronics, it's time for us to have like family time. So she got off hesitantly and then the next morning when she woke up she saw that they had purchased matching outfits on Roblox without her, or I don't even know if I'm saying it right Roblox yeah, I think it's Roblox. You use Robux to buy Roblox, I don't know. So her friends, her two friends, had bought matching outfits and didn't include her. So she was like really upset, right. So this is what I did with her, and then I'll give you an example of me next.

Speaker 2:

But I just felt like this was a really good moment to share for parents. So first I just listened to her. I let her just get it out right. So I let her just share the whole thing. Once she shared it all and I could like feel that her emotions came down. I validated what she said. I said something simple like okay, I understand how that could make you feel that way.

Speaker 2:

So then I asked her what emotions are you feeling? So then she starts naming different emotions. She knows, based on other conversations like this, that I always want her to name like three to five emotions at least. So she started listing off the emotions three to five emotions at least. So she started listing off the emotions. That helped her reduce the pressure even more. Then I asked her where are you feeling it? She was feeling it in her stomach.

Speaker 2:

So we went through a technique to use visualization to release that pressure. Then I said how do you feel like they're being to you. And she said I feel like they're leaving me out, I feel like I'm not important. And something I learned recently that was super helpful is like most of these emotional battles come down to two things feeling like we're not special and feeling like we don't belong. So clearly she was experiencing both right, and they're kind of counterintuitive, because if we're special, then we don't really belong. Right, so most things come down to these things, but we can absolutely be special and still belong. So then I said okay, let's bring down your emotions even more by engaging your five senses. So I told her what do you see? What do you smell? What you know? Just asked her all these questions and I could see her relaxing. She was actually laying on me so I could feel her body just like release.

Speaker 2:

Then I I don't always do this, but I felt like this was really helpful. So I explained our primal instinct of not wanting to get kicked out of the tribe and, in case you haven't heard me share this before, basically what I told her is like in the caveman days it was beneficial and actually necessary for us to be in a group of people. Right, because if we're in a group of people, a group of people right, because if we're in a group of people someone's hunting, someone's protecting we're more likely to survive in a group of people. If we get kicked out of that tribe, we're likely to not survive out in the wild, right With all the animals and not being able to hunt and all of that. So I explained to her that was really helpful when we were cavemen and cavewomen, right, I said little cavewoman Taylin my daughter's name is Taylin little cavewoman Taylin is getting triggered because she feels like she's getting kicked out of the tribe.

Speaker 2:

And I only do this if I feel like she's already cleared a lot of the emotions, but then I like to make her laugh while I'm explaining this. So I just made sure she really understood like this is how it was and that hasn't changed all that much within us. Like, yes, our brains have grown, our prefrontal cortex has, you know, grown, has shifted, but like, we still have those very primal instincts where we don't want to get kicked out of the tribe. That's where people pleasing comes into play. That's where, like, it feels unsafe to like be seen and to like, you know, where a lot of people are trying to push past it instead of understanding, like, oh, this is a primal instinct.

Speaker 2:

And then, and then reprogramming, right. So I asked her will you survive not having a matching outfit with them? And she started laughing and she was like yes, and I said so. I said is it life-threatening for you to have been left out of getting the same outfit as them on Roblox? And she started laughing and she said no. And I said okay, great.

Speaker 2:

And I can't remember exactly the conversation. I should have written it down, but I was being very present with her and I just basically made her laugh and I just drew it back to the fact that she got it logically that she was going to survive, even though she felt like she was getting kicked out of the tribe, which she wasn't. They were actually apologizing to her, but she was so deep in this emotion that I knew I had to get her out of it first before she could even see like they were sorry, right. So I got her to see that logically, yes, we know she's going to survive not having matching outfits, and she very much understood my explanation about why this was a primal response and so the laughing, all of that really helped. So then she was able, after we had this discussion, to read their texts and understand that they were apologizing. They did feel bad for like doing that right, but her initial reaction was a primal one, like oh my god, I'm getting kicked out of the tribe, I'm gonna die. So after she knew I'm getting kicked out of the tribe, I'm going to die, so after she knew it's not going to happen, I'm fine, she just said thanks, guys, ok, and like they all made up Right. So that's one example.

Speaker 2:

I have a lot of techniques that I go over in Unveiled, but I always personalize them based on who I'm talking to and what the situation is I'm talking to and what the situation is right, and so with this, it's a very unique blend of what I've learned in unconscious reprogramming, nervous system regulation, neuroscience and then also energetics and intuition, being able to I could tell as soon as she got it, as soon as she got, that this was a primal response and not a logical one, and I did explain a little bit how the brain works too. She was good. It's so key to be able to to do this for ourselves, but also our children. So right now, a lot of people are feel, feeling emotional a lot of because at at a very scientific energetic level. We are all the same. We all came from source, which is like, if you think about it scientifically, it's just the, the brightest light, right, the most high-powered light. We all broke out into little mini balls of light, or so we're all mini sources. But if we were to all connect back in to source, to the higher power, to the light, we would realize we're all the same. And now more than ever, it's really important to be able to tap into emotional mastery and intuition. So I'm going to give you another example of how I use my emotional mastery technique. So we will continue getting lessons presented to us until we are able to overcome them.

Speaker 2:

This is where, in my Clean BDE program, I teach that it's not enough to just leave a toxic relationship. You have to shift internally so that you're no longer an energetic match for it. So, as an example, an ex of mine used to follow me around from room to room, like harassing me, cussing at me, saying I wasn't doing enough, like it was so toxic, and it felt like I was drowning in criticism. All I wanted to do was escape. But you can't escape it until you overcome it. So now I have a family member. Well, it's been happening for a while, but I just made this connection.

Speaker 2:

I have a family member who has kind of taken that place and so she's very critical of me. She followed me just a couple nights ago. She was following me from room to room me just a couple nights ago. She was following me from room to room, criticizing me, and I was like, oh my god, she has taken that space. But you know what it all comes back to me. It wasn't my ex's fault, it's not her fault. There's something in me that's creating this and there are a lot of different levels of how to explain this.

Speaker 2:

Today, with alessandro, he told me at a much higher level, like I still need to like wrap my brain around it what is actually happening. But I'll just share like the very basic level here is that it's never about what the person is saying to you. It's about how you feel they're being. So what I felt like is she's being critical of me, she's making me feel like I'm not doing enough and she's not seeing all of the positive things I do. So as soon as I got that, I brought it back to myself. Where am I criticizing myself? Where am I being hard on myself? Where am I not celebrating the positive? And I was like, oh well, just about every area.

Speaker 2:

Like I went to the gym twice last week, which was great, huge. If you've been listening for a while, you'll know that I signed up for the gym like over a month ago and my higher self really wanted me to get my butt there. Took me a while. Instead of celebrating that, I went twice. At first I did end up celebrating it, but at first I was like I should have gone three times. Right, and how common is this for us to not see and not celebrate what we're actually doing? So then another thing is I'm literally running two companies. I'm a single parent. I have a lot of friends online who live all over the world, but I don't have any friends near me, I don't have a partner. So it's like I'm literally doing so much on my own. I need to be telling myself every day like wow, angela, you are really killing it in your business right now, you.

Speaker 2:

But you have to be specific. I got my client this result, or I got this extra money, or whatever it is like, since this opened my eyes in the last like 48 hours. That like I knew it already on some level, but like I didn't really get it until I was like whoa, she took his place. But it all comes back to me, right. And so I was laying in bed last night and I was so angry and at one point had really bad carpal tunnel to the point where I was on disability they said I would need surgery. I knew it was like an emotional, energetic thing and I knew it was from anger I was experiencing during a custody battle. And so once I shifted that anger, my carpal tunnel went away. I never needed surgery. Like it was so bad that in the mornings I'd wake up and I couldn't open my hands. Like that's how bad it was.

Speaker 2:

And I shifted it with my emotions and with my energetic work. So last night I was laying in bed and my carpal tunnel was flaring up and I'm like, okay, this is anger. And I walked through a lot of the techniques and one of them is using visuals. So what I did is after I got to the root of the emotion, because we have to get to the root of the emotion and I teach you how, inside Unveiled, once you get to the root, then you can start clearing it out of your body and it's really important to do this within 48 hours. I don't know if I mentioned that last week, but if you experience something, it's okay, deal with it. Deal with the emotion, like feel the feelings, but within 48 hours you need to shift it and do these techniques, otherwise you'll start creating health issues and it will start affecting your creator field in a negative way. So I know that, and so last night I was like, okay, I'm feeling angry, walked through all of the steps and then the visualization I used was just seeing like this blue water wash over my arms and like washing out the red. And after I just did that until I fell asleep, I woke up and my arms are fine.

Speaker 2:

So these techniques work, and what Alessandra pointed out to me today during class is that it was reflecting something in my so there's eight areas of life that I've talked about before it was reflecting something in my financial area of life. That happened because I was treating myself that way, because I had invested in this program that I do still stand by Like I'd invested in this program. I told myself I wasn't going to invest in anything else, but what this will do is it will help me scale my business in a way that will feel effortless, and so to me that's really worth it. But I know I won't see like a return on investment for probably three to six months, right. But in the back of my mind, I was being really hard on myself, like you shouldn't have done that. Why'd you do that?

Speaker 2:

I kept hearing these thoughts and I kept pushing them away, instead of saying like okay, I hear you, let's. I talk to myself all the time. I hear you, let's walk through this. Let's walk through why this was a good investment, why my intuition told me to invest in this. So it's 100% the right thing to do.

Speaker 2:

But because I can still be pretty critical on myself, I wasn't addressing it. I was dealing with my kids, I was doing a lot. I should have just taken even five minutes to say like I hear you, I will address this later, right. But I just kept pushing it away, away. And this is why it's so important to like listen to those little nudges, because otherwise it's going to be reflected to you. So now what I'm going to do is not just celebrate myself generically, but also look like what can I celebrate in my financial area of life, right, and get very specific on what I can, and so what I've really been doing today is putting myself first. I've canceled calls, I've pushed calls back and I went to the gym. So I was crying this morning which it takes a lot for me to cry. So I was crying this morning, dealing with, you know, this negativity, this criticism, and I knew, yes, this is me, but it's still difficult, on top of everything else, everybody's feeling right, you can like pick up on everything. So I was crying this morning. I could have just been like I'm too tired and emotional to go to the gym. No, I went to the gym very proud of myself and I actually felt so much better.

Speaker 2:

I wanted to give these very specific examples to you because it's more important than ever to get your emotions under control. I see so many people right now on social media emotions out of control. Like when your emotions are out of control, you are less intelligent. Literally, the blood flow gets diverted from your brain to your limbs to run fast or to your jaw to bite. So when we're feeling fearful or anger or any of these emotions, we are dumber, so we're not going to solve our problems right, and this can very much show up in our bodies as well. So, like if you're feeling overwhelmed or anxious or unsafe, you can experience head pressure. If you're feeling a lack of emotional support which I had this last night you can feel pressure on, like your shoulders, your upper back. If you have pressure between your eyes, it feels literally like you're something's blocking your intuition or it's because your body's feeling overwhelmed, because it's trying to get to the right answer. So our bodies will also tell us when we're out of balance.

Speaker 2:

If you're feeling like this, the first thing to always do is just engage your five senses, because that brings you back, that starts the blood flowing back to your brain. So engage your five senses. If you can't and this is like a more advanced technique, but I like to imagine someone it's actually one of my exes who he's really funny and he like nothing is serious to him. So his favorite thing to say is like oh, it's okay, everything will be okay. And so I'll imagine telling him my problem and him laughing and like that makes me laugh. So then it like really reduces the pressure. Not everybody will be ready for that, but that's like an advanced technique that I go into more in Unveiled. So everything comes back to us, everything is right in front of us 24-7. We just aren't taught how to look at things, and emotions are literally here to help us. If you feel an emotion, it's actually your higher self saying that you are out of balance, and so as soon as you feel that emotion, it's a clue to tap into your emotional mastery skills.

Speaker 2:

The other piece of this which I know is happening right now is judgment. If you're judging someone, it's actually because there's some kind of aspect of them that you wish you could embody. So, for example, this family member that was criticizing me, I found myself judging her because she just likes to drink wine, watch soap operas, and in my mind I was being judgy, but then, when I got down to the root of it, it's because she has freedom. Right, she has the freedom to do those things because she doesn't have small children. So, like then it kind of diffuses the judgment. So I'm like, okay, I'm just judging her because she has that little aspect of freedom. Not that I want to go drink wine and watch soap operas, I can't even drink wine anymore. I have like a glass and I have a headache the next day and I have no desire to ever watch soap operas. But it's just the freedom piece of it. Right, because she can do that. I can't. I have children, I have businesses to run, but what I can do is be like, where can I tap into some freedom? Right, I had a sitter this weekend at the house with me and I sat and I watched my videos that in the course that I just invested in, right, so that's freedom is being able to have a sitter come and play with you, know, your child in the next room.

Speaker 2:

Or if you're looking at someone online and I still catch myself doing this sometimes I'll be like, oh my gosh, she just like has the perfect life. Or look at her partner, her partner's so supportive and it's like, okay, I wouldn't be able to appreciate that and see that in them if I didn't have it in me and if it wasn't meant for me, right? Or it's a piece that you're denying. So if you look at someone, you're like, oh my God, they are so smart, like how do they do this? That means that there's a part of you you might be denying. You're not connecting to your own intelligence because you can't see anything that isn't you. So what are you seeing? What are you judging? So what are you seeing. What are you judging? Just take note of that and then try to dial that down to like the core.

Speaker 2:

Like for me, it's not that I want to go drink wine and watch soap operas all day that actually sounds awful. I just want the freedom to be able to sit and do what I want for a few hours, right, so you can actually take people who you might consider your biggest villains and use them to help yourself. We see something about them because there's a part of us that we aren't seeing. Okay, so I hope that makes sense to you. And just remember my favorite thing like this is how I get through the frustration of coming back to like it's all me, like the criticism. All of that on the outside is all comes back to me how I'm treating myself. So remember you are in your own Truman show. You are literally handing the script to people on how to treat you.

Speaker 2:

So when I look at it that way, like and make it less personal like I handed her a script to come criticize me, just like I handed my ex a script to come criticize me, because I've been criticizing myself and the way that we treat ourself is how other people are going to treat us so. If you don't want people criticizing you which I don't, it doesn't feel good, right are going to treat us so. If you don't want people criticizing you which I don't it doesn't feel good, right, especially when I'm doing so goddamn much. I don't want people criticizing me. I'm hard enough on myself, but that's the issue. The issue is that I am hard on myself, and so for the next week we'll check in next week on the next episode but for the next week, I am going to pull up a note on my phone and do this with me, please, if you feel called to and every night before I go to bed, I'm going to write down very specifically like what I accomplished, what I feel proud of, and then also seeing how I'm special, yet I also belong, right. So I hope this helped you. Just remember, be kind.

Speaker 2:

There's a lot more going on behind the scenes right now than I've even shared on here. I highly recommend listening to Alessandro and Allie's podcasts. I'll link them again. I think I linked them last week, but I'll link them again below, because the world is heading towards change, but before it can get better, it has to get worse, and it's not exactly in the way you're thinking like not to get into it here is owned by mostly one person who doesn't have the best intentions, and they're going to make the good people look bad and the bad people look good.

Speaker 2:

I didn't know that for a long time and I got really sucked into feeling very fearful and angry because of things that were happening in the world. Once I saw what was actually happening, I was able to be like whoa, this is crazy. I mean, it takes a little while to actually digest, but then, once you do, it's like how did I not see this before? So again, I'll link Allie and Alessandro's podcast episodes below. Definitely check those out, because there's a lot more happening behind the scenes than some people might want to believe. So sending you guys all love.
