“Joie Seldon’s work is a gift to the world. In her course, Emotional Evolution Lab, and her book, EMOTIONS: an Owner’s Manual, she offers clear, compassionate guidance that helps people understand and embrace their emotions as powerful allies, not enemies. Her practical tools and unique approach, blending science, somatics, and soul, make emotional intelligence feel accessible and even joyful. I wholeheartedly recommend her work to anyone ready to feel more confident, connected, and free.”

Hello and Welcome,
I am excited to invite you to join me for Emotional Evolution Lab, designed to bring stability to these extraordinary, challenging times and equip you with the skills to create more personal and professional success in alignment with your values.
For 25 years, I’ve been teaching smart, caring, and determined women, and a few men, how to transform their emotions from a perceived liability to their greatest assets and allies.
Too many women I meet have personal ambitions and know they have so much to contribute – to their family, their work, their community – but they feel frustrated, unheard, or unsure how to express themselves without backlash or self-doubt.
We’ve been taught that emotions are “bad” or “too much.” We’ve been told to hold them in, tone them down, or hide them altogether. But the truth is—your emotions are your greatest source of clarity, strength, and power.
This course takes the mystery out of emotions and helps you release the baggage society has put on you about how we “should” feel and act.
As you create a foundation of emotional empowerment, you’ll gain tools, confidence, and the ability to express what’s true for you in ways that get you seen and heard.
This live training will . . .

Demystify and clarify emotions’ true purpose

Debunk the B.S. you’ve been taught about emotions that make you suppress and second-guess yourself

Give you tools and build skills to communicate clearly, set boundaries and take actions that are in your best interest (and therefore in the best interest of others)
You will gain a new perspective on emotions grounded in neuroscience, somatic* psychology, coaching applications, metaphysics and acting techniques.
*Soma refers to the whole person, where emotions, mind, and body are intrinsically connected.
In this high-touch/low-tech course, you’ll participate in 7 weekly live sessions that combine progressive learning and exercises, along with Q&A time for personalized support.
Recordings of each session will be available.
You will receive handouts for exercises and processes as well as bonus guides, videos, and an audio-guided meditation exclusive to participants.
Emotions are an intrinsic part of being alive, yet we are taught next to nothing about how they function or their powerful purpose.
I hope you will join me in this uncomplicated, yet profound course and liberate yourself from the constrictions of societal norms.
Warm Regards,
Joie Seldon

Why Emotional Evolution Lab is Different
Most programs teach you to manage, calm or control emotions. This one shows you how to liberate them—so they become your greatest source of clarity, confidence, and power.
You’ll learn how to:




WHO IS THIS FOR?
“All emotions are healthy because emotions are what unite the mind and body. Anger, fear, and sadness, the so-called negative emotions, are as healthy as peace, courage, and joy. All honest emotions are positive emotions.” Candace Pert, PhD, Neuroscientist, author Molecules of Emotions
This training is for open-minded, growth-seeking women who want to create a kinder, happier, more fulfilling life—not only for themselves, but for the people they love and, for some, their community and even the world at large.
If you care deeply, want to make a difference, and are ready for the next level of self-trust, self-leadership and emotional freedom—this is for you.

FAQ
What if I can’t be there live?
Sessions will be recorded, and you will have access to the recording within a day of the session.
What if I have to leave early?
The bulk of the teaching will be in the first hour, with the last half-hour for questions and discussion.
Do I have to have my camera on?
No, but it is highly recommended. Being fully present and engaged will get you the best results. There will be some breakout room exercises and you will need the camera on for those.
Is there a refund if I decide to drop out?
Because proprietary material is being shared in every class, a prorated tuition will be refunded up to the end of week two. Note: no one has ever wanted to drop out.
How do I know this will work for me?
There is not a single person Joie has taught or worked with 1-to-1 that has not benefited from this process. Whether your motivation was personal or professional, the work will have a positive impact. The skills are universal
