How to create the space for emotional well-being
Oct 16, 2025Today’s episode centers on the idea of creating space as the foundation for emotional well-being, especially for women navigating motherhood and midlife transitions. Drawing from her professional and personal experience, Cara introduces three key space essentials for transformation: a welcoming inner space that offers safety and self-compassion; a nurturing inner self that embodies kindness, steadiness, and unconditional support; and intentional daily space—or “eddy-out” moments—for emotional connection amid life’s pace. These practices can help women learn to meet their feelings with presence, care, and curiosity.
Key takeaways:
- Emotional wellness begins with creating inner space for safety, warmth, and self-acceptance.
- Cultivating a nurturing inner voice allows compassion and steadiness through difficulty.
- Scheduling daily “pause points” (eddy-outs) enables intentional emotional reflection and growth.
