My Imaginary Therapist S2 E4: Thought Parenting, Emotional Chaos and the Circus in My Head

🎙️ Created, written & performed by: Ellen J. Wanjiru | 🎥 Produced by: Ellen Tha Great Productions, LLC

In this introspective yet delightfully chaotic session, I explore the tangled relationship between my thoughts and emotions — and how I’ve been parenting both poorly. A quote from Pastor Jerry Flowers sparked the shift:

“Thoughts are the parents, and feelings are the kids.” Whew. That part sent me.

Suddenly, it all made sense — my thoughts had been running a wild household, and my emotions? Those were the unruly kids reacting to chaotic guidance. Now I’m stepping up as the mindful ringmaster of my inner emotional circus.

🧠 In this session:

  • Learning how unmanaged thoughts lead to emotional chaos

  • Pastor Jerry Flowers’ emotional intelligence analogy that shook me

  • Reframing your inner dialogue to shift how you feel

  • How to “re-parent” your thoughts for better emotional health

  • Turning inner noise into Zen preschool energy 💆🏽‍♀️🎪

If your thoughts have ever spiraled you into anxiety, overthinking, or emotional overload, this one’s for you. Because your thoughts are raising your feelings — and it’s time to upgrade the parenting.

How would you describe the relationship between your thoughts and emotions?
