In this season-opening episode of Feelings Matter, Michelle, Tina, and Heather dive deep into the meaning and impact of emotional literacy—a topic that might sound academic, but is rooted in everyday life.

While its formal roots come from psychologist Claude Steiner's five-part definition, the team focuses on what it really looks like in our day-to-day lives—recognizing, naming, and responding to emotions in a conscious and empowered way.
