Anger & Forgiveness (Part 2) 😡🕊️ Welcome back to Big Emotions! As we saw in part 1, anger can flare up in a moment, but forgiveness has the power to calm the storm. In Part 2, we go even deeper into how these two emotions work together - with more stories, practical tools, and even a parable that shows what can happen when we pause to see things differently. You’ll hear how understanding someone else’s side can help us release heavy feelings and find peace.

Anger & Forgiveness (Part 1) 😡🕊️ Welcome back to Big Emotions! This week's focus is on two emotions that can make us feel full of rage, but then make us feel lighter than ever! Anger can feel like a volcano ready to blow - but it’s also a signal that something isn’t right. Forgiveness is like putting down a heavy backpack of hurt, making space for calm and healing. In this episode, we explore how these two big emotions work together, and how understanding someone else’s side can turn frustration into connection. You’ll hear powerful and heartwarming stories from Kids Listen shows that show the energy of anger and the relief of letting go.

Jealousy & Openness (Part 2) 😒💛 Welcome back to Big Emotions! In Part 1 of Jealousy & Openness, we explored the sting of jealousy and the pull of envy - and learned how these tricky emotions can actually guide us toward what matters most. Now in Part 2, we lean into their opposites: openness and contentment. You’ll hear stories that encourage us to try new things, connect with others, and appreciate what we already have, even while holding space for the harder feelings.

Jealousy & Openness (Part 1) 😒💛 Welcome back to Big Emotions! This week we’re diving into jealousy and envy, which we know can be tricky feelings - they can sting, make us compare ourselves to others, or worry we’ll lose someone important to us. But they can also be helpful, pointing us toward what matters most and motivating us to grow. In this episode, you’ll discover the difference between jealousy and envy, explore their opposites (like openness, compassion, and contentment), and hear how kids and families in our stories navigate these feelings with curiosity and kindness.

Fear & Bravery (Part 1) 😱🦸 Welcome to Big Emotions! A brand new podcast where we show you that emotions aren’t something to fear, they’re something to feel. And speaking of fear…fear & bravery might seem like total opposites, but they’re actually deeply connected. In our first episode of the series, we’ll be exploring how fear can help keep us safe, prepare us for challenges, and even guide us toward growth - and how bravery isn’t about having no fear, but about moving forward despite it. You’ll hear amazing stories from Kids Listen creators that show fear and bravery in action, and learn tools to face your own fears!
