Description

When someone says something rude, offensive, or hurtful, you might feel attacked, but what if the real problem isn’t their words, but your thoughts about them? In this episode, I’ll break down how you can stop being emotionally hijacked by what others say and start owning your reactions instead. If you’re tired of feeling powerless, this one’s for you.

What You Will Discover:

  • Why your brain creates meaning from words, and how to override it
  • How to shift from “They hurt me” to “I choose how I feel”
  • What to say to yourself when your kid, spouse, or parent says something painful
