Our emotional health is an important piece of our overall health. If you’re not able to address your emotions, it can affect the way you interact with others, diminish your mental health, and even manifest physically. In this episode, you’re going to learn about how to tap into your creativity, improve your emotional fitness, and bring more value to your relationships.

Today’s guest is an award-winning poet, multi-platinum songwriter, and speaker: IN-Q. He’s back on The Model Health Show to share inspiring ideas and poetry from his new album, The Never Ending Now. We’re going to discuss topics like the process of moving through sadness or grief, how to find your personal range of happiness, the healing power of creativity, and so much more.

We’re having important conversations on the transformative power of vulnerability, tactics for processing emotions, and how to find the magic in everyday experiences. I know something in this episode will resonate with you; so click play and enjoy the show!

In this episode you’ll discover:

* How making sadness part of our identity keeps us stuck.
* Why suffering is easier than braving the unknown.
