Hi guys, Welcome back to Episode 11 of These Twenty Somethings. Last week, we took a break in preparation for today, as today' show is the first episode of season 1! This season, there will be visual shows accompanied by the audio shows. The audio shows are going to be dropping every Friday, whereas the audio shows will be dropping every Tuesday. Along with that, there will be a website and one-stop shop for all things These Twenty Somethings in order for you all to access all of this. The website will be made available next week! Get excited:)
With that said, this week we are going to be talking with guest Jordan Epps on the topic of emotional intelligence. We are broaching the topic from the viewpoint of how your emotions can be used in conjunction with a mind over matter mentality. We share our experiences on the topic and the challenges we have faced with conquering our emotions.
We answered two main questions in this show that I would love for you all to ponder. 1.) Why are emotions important and 2.) Are emotions a choice?
If you are interested in seeing more of Jordan you can find her over on Instagram @etherealbeauty.1.
Hope you all enjoy the show and welcome to Season 2!

This week we have the guest, Shannon Kaiser on to help us learn more about self-love and how we can take an experimental approach to it. Shannon is an author, life coach, and overall lover of life, who helps others around her to reach their greatest and highest self-love potential. After reading her book, "The Self Love Experiment," I was very much so inspired to begin to ask myself the questions that Shannon asked herself during the beginning of her self love experiment. I hope you all enjoy this episode, as I was very much so nervous to be talking to such a brilliant and empowering woman!
Also, don't forget to answer the question of the week: What does it mean to have an unconditional love of self?
