In today’s episode, I’m joined by Professor Marc Brackett, founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and author of the newly published Dealing With Feeling, to untangle one of the big questions: what actually are emotions - and how are they different from feelings, moods, or just “being in a state”? We talk about why there’s no such thing as a “bad” emotion, how emotions act as data rather than problems to get rid of, and wh y so many of us - especially in places like the UK - were raised to “keep calm and carry on” instead of learning how to work with what we feel. Marc walks us through his simple RULER framework, why labelling your emotions properly can completely change how you cope, and the practical tools we can all use to regulate our moods without repressing or overindulging them. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “too emotional,” “not emotional enough,” or just confused about what’s going on inside, this conversation will give you language, clarity and a far kinder way of understanding yourself.

Together, they dive into why emotions matter, how to raise emotionally intelligent children, and the essential skills parents need to model emotional regulation effectively. Jon and Marc discuss the misconceptions around emotions—especially the temptation to suppress unpleasant feelings—and how these unresolved emotions often resurface in unhealthy ways. Marc shares his guiding principle of giving ourselves “permission to feel” and explains the difference between being an emotion scientist and an emotion judge . Whether you’re navigating tough parenting moments or learning to process your own feelings, this episode will equip you with practical tools for building emotional intelligence at home. Key Takeaways: Why Emotions Matter : Emotions are critical for attention, decision-making, relationships, mental health, and overall performance. Suppressed emotions don’t go away—they often intensify over time. The Role of Emotional Intelligence : Developing emotional awareness and regulation starts with parents. Kids learn emotional intelligence when parents model vulnerability, self-reflection, and healthy coping strategies. Becoming an Emotion Scientist vs. Emotion Judge : Emotion Scientists : Curious, open, and exploratory when processing feelings. Emotion Judges : Critical, dismissive, and reactive to emotions. Marc introduces his How We Feel app to help individuals and families develop emotional awareness and vocabulary. Practical Regulation Strategies : Proactive emotional regulation (e.g., pausing at the “doorknob moment” to prepare for emotional triggers). Modeling emotional honesty with kids, even during challenging moments.
