Have you noticed that kindness, understanding, and patience feel harder to come by these days? You’re not alone! In a world that feels increasingly tense and on edge, it can be challenging to navigate interactions with difficult people while staying true to your own sense of peace.
In this week's episode, Barb and Michelle dive into an important conversation: How do we handle disrespect? Many of us absorb negative encounters and allow them to impact our moods and mindsets—but we don’t have to.
While we can’t control the external world, we can control our reactions and responses to it.
In this powerful episode, we share our personalized emotional health toolkit to help you navigate difficult times, uncomfortable feelings, and challenging interactions. We share our practical tools and essential practices for staying grounded, emotionally regulated, and responding with compassion—even in the face of triggers and heightened emotions.
It’s not always easy, and no one is perfect, but we hope that by listening to this episode, you’ll walk away with a few valuable tools to help you navigate life’s challenges with more ease and resilience.
