Modus Felicitas

Walking back into the Champalimaud Center for the Unknown this week was a powerful moment. I used to work here, and during that time, I went through one of the toughest periods of my life. I struggled with expressing my own emotions, feeling overwhelmed and isolated. Now, returning as a speaker felt like coming full circle—transforming a painful experience into an opportunity to help others.

During my workshop, we explored emotional intelligence and stress management through evidence-based frameworks of emotional intelligence and the power of simple yet effective breathing techniques. It was fulfilling to see a room that started off anxious become calmer and more focused. Hearing participants request extra time for questions and share personal stories reminded me how vital it is to make space for emotions in our professional (and personal) lives.

I’m grateful for the invitation from the PhD Mental Health Subcommittee and excited to keep this work going with more workshops on the horizon for other professionals.

How about you? Do you think you handle your emotions better than your boss? Drop a comment and let me know.

Let’s keep this conversation alive and keep growing together! ✨
