    Whether we know, or want to admit it, our emotions are a major driver in day-to-day life. It’s easy to walk around, unaware of how our feelings influence our behavior, and if we spend our energy fighting or repressing them, we run the risk of missing out on living the life we always wanted.

    My guest today is Kim Korte. Kim saw the need to reframe the explanation of how our brains process emotions through our perceptions and experiences. She’s written a book called, Yucky, Yummy, Savory, Sweet- Understanding the Flavors of Emotions.

    It’s a whole new way to think about our emotions, by relating them to something we all know a lot about…food. Stick with us for the next hour, and I bet you’ll come out the other side with more tools for your own joyful rebellion.
