In this episode, we dive into the enchanting world of the Inside Out movie franchise, a groundbreaking series that brilliantly brings the conversation about emotions to the forefront of society. Through its imaginative storytelling and relatable characters, Inside Out has opened up a dialogue about the complexity of our emotional lives. However, while celebrating its success, we also explore a critical truth the franchise overlooks: our cognitive power over emotions. Join us as we discuss how cognition is crucial in managing our feelings and why recognizing this can lead to a more holistic understanding of our emotional experiences. This episode is a must-listen for franchise fans and anyone interested in the intersection of emotions and cognitive science. Let’s talk about how our emotions don’t have to control us. We can live with our hands firmly on the control panel inside our brains and body.
