Welcome to Life Mastery Soul Memos, Episode 66! Each month, WU World-Changer and Life Mastery Coach, David McLeod, shares a new soul memo with you!
Episode 66, February 2026: Handling Big Feelings Gracefully
Everyone experiences strong emotions. Some of us are able to hide that fact better than others, but no one gets a free pass. Anger, grief, excitement, jealousy, shame, joy so big it makes us cry — these are part of being human. The trouble is, many of us learned somewhere along the line that “strong” means “bad”. If an emotion is intense, it must be wrong, immature, or unsafe to show…especially in public. So we get very good at stuffing things down, smiling politely, and secretly hoping the emotional volcano doesn’t blow at the worst possible moment.
Let’s put that ugly myth to rest: there is no such thing as a “bad” emotion. None. Zero. Your anger isn’t bad. Your fear isn’t bad. Your jealousy isn’t bad. Even your hatred, as feeling, is not bad. What can be harmful are the actions that sometimes follow when you don’t know how to work with what you feel. The emotion itself is simply energy in motion — “e‑motion.” It can be pleasant or unpleasant, gentle or intense, but it is not a moral issue. The real question for life mastery is: how do you deal with strong emotions safely, skillfully, and in a way that actually helps you grow?

Strong emotions are not a sign that you’re failing at Life Mastery. They are invitations to deepen it. Each time you recognize, allow, and express a feeling in a healthy way, you’re rewiring your brain, strengthening your nervous system, and building relationships that can handle real honesty.
So the next time a strong emotion knocks at your door — even if it’s right in the middle of a meeting or a family dinner — remember: it’s not “bad.” It’s energy in motion, asking for your attention. You have the tools to greet it, breathe with it, learn from it, and let it move through. And over time, you become not the victim of your emotions, but the wise steward of them.
Let me know your thoughts about this, and if you need some one-on-one support, please reach out to me directly.
