Rewind: WTF is Radical Acceptance?

This week on ShrinkChicks, we are taking you back to our most popular episode of 2022: WTF is Radical Acceptance? Something Em & Jen are asked every time they do a Q&A is: "how do I not feel x, y, or z emotion?" Radical acceptance is a skill that they do a deep dive into in this episode, to help us work towards accepting unpleasant emotions rather than avoiding them. Emmalee and Jen explain the term "Radical Acceptance" which comes from a therapeutic modality called DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). They discuss the difference between radical acceptance and invalidating our feelings, where to start with working toward acceptance, building up our distress tolerances, how many of us were taught to resist our emotions, instances where radical acceptance is not appropriate, why it takes time, and so much more! Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! The article referenced in the episode.
