Emotions: Unlocked - Episode Fourteen - Apathy

Jemima Blazdell and Emma Starling Season 1 Episode 14

Overcoming Apathy and Embracing Motivation

In this podcast episode, the hosts discuss the concept of apathy, especially post-holiday season, and the struggle to maintain motivation and energy during the colder months. They touch on the impact of societal expectations for instant gratification and the challenge of keeping one's 'fire burning' amidst the dreariness of winter. The conversation delves into the importance of shifting from apathy to inspiration and motivation, highlighting the need to appreciate the present moment to manifest a brighter future. The hosts engage in a tapping (EFT) session to address feelings of resistance, sadness, and past failures, emphasising the transformation from feeling apathetic to finding motivation. They also explore the role of self-compassion, acceptance, and the safe expression of emotions in healing and motivating oneself. The episode aims to provide listeners with tools and insights to overcome apathy, embrace their inner passions, and feel motivated to pursue their goals and desires.
