Episode 28 | Inside Out (2015)

Was this movie MADE for life coaches? Maybe! The movie for this episode is one of Jessica's picks, but it's beloved by both of our hosts: 'Inside Out' (2015). This Disney offering is unique among other animated films in its class. It takes the audience inside (literally) the mind of 11-year-old Riley who is about to move from Minnesota to San Francisco, leaving behind the only life she has ever known. At the control panel of her mind are five emotions: Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger, and Disgust. As Riley navigates the massive shift of moving to a new place, we see how her emotions (and ours, by extension) each play a crucial role.We laugh, we cry, and we dive deep into the richness that this movie offers our human-behavior-obsessed brains. We talk about how our current lens can affect our perspectives of our own pasts, how personality is NOT the person, what 'Inside Out' does really well when it comes to illustrating the THOUGHT-FEELING-ACTION sequence, where it falls short, and what this can teach us about the power we have over our own minds.Thanks for listening! We'd be so grateful if you could leave us a review wherever you listen to podcasts.Interested in connecting with Jessica or Gabi?
