📚 Emotional Agility Check-In 📚
I’ll hold my hands up and say I haven’t read as much as I would have liked yet 😬Â I’m about 100 pages in so far but plan on dedicating some more time over the next few days!Â
How about everyone else- how have you been finding the book and what’s your main take away so far?

Holding my hands up too, would have liked to have read more but know it’s going to be an excellent one for musing on over the summer. Actually have it on now (via Audible) whilst I’m working! Fiona Chorlton-Voong what are your favourite chapters (other than the Walking your Why section)?

I found the part where she talks about how we tend to compare ourselves to others that we put on a pedestal very interesting. Trying to achieve or emulate someone else’s ”success” whilst we only see their end result will always be challenging. What we don’t tend to do is look at their journey and their pain points to get to that level.

I started listening to the audiobook when I was in the gym – the lighthouse story at the beginning did make me chuckle
But it’s been an interesting read so far. There are a couple of quotes about adaptability that have definitely struck a chord with me e.g.
”Learning how to see yourself as the chessboard filled with possibilities, rather than any piece on the board confined to certain moves.”
I’ve found having flexibility in my thinking can lead to unexpe…

Thanks for sharing, Ella 🙂 great video. My golden takeaways from the video are: ”I did away with feelings of what I should be experiencing and started to open my heart to what I felt” & ”courage is not the absence of fear, it is fear walking”.
It’s very easy to get caught up in what we think we should be feeling or experiencing when we often need to just accept and go through a particular emotion. Moments of difficulty can be the greatest teachers and we h…

Hi Jade, both such good quotes!! I completely agree about the expectations of feelings. Setting up those expectations of, ”when I get to point X I will feel accomplished/happy…” can definitely set people up for feelings of failure and disappointment. I love what you said about moments of difficulty being the greatest teachers- so important to remember!

I read this book years ago on the great recommendation of the lovely Mariana Rai. I’ve since recommended it to so many people – most recently Saira Chaudry and Caoimhe Kelly. I’ve re-read some of my favourite chapters recently to remind myself of why I loved this book so much in the first place.
The section on ”Walking your why” really highlights the whole ethos behind TPC and how to dig deep to find your values through your life. Ending each day with a reflection on, &…
