Feeling Unheard Mar 16, 2023

Show notes

An EMOTIONAL TRIGGER is any person, words, actions, situations, or environments that make us emotionally uncomfortable. We’ll likely experience intense, excessive physical sensations.

When we feel UNHEARD, it may be because we don’t feel as if:

our voice matters
we’re worthy of being listened to

I invite you to consider these questions:

When have you felt UNHEARD?
When have you felt as if your voice doesn’t matter?
When have you felt unheard when someone disagrees with you?

When it comes to podcasting, the best way to “tip the bartender” is by heading over to Apple Podcasts and leaving a 5-star review. This helps me imbibe other listeners with the secret sauce of emotional intelligence. And, make sure to “order another round” by hitting SUBSCRIBE.

Feeling Powerless Mar 15, 2023

Show notes

An EMOTIONAL TRIGGER is any person, words, actions, situations, or environments that make us emotionally uncomfortable. We’ll likely experience intense, excessive physical sensations.

When we feel powerless, it may be because circumstances feel:

unpredictable
uncontrollable
uncertain

I invite you to consider these questions:

What do you have the power to think, feel, and do?
What do you have control over, and what don’t you?
What makes uncertainty so unnerving?
How can you empower yourself to take just one next step?

Feeling Excluded Mar 14, 2023

Show notes

An EMOTIONAL TRIGGER is any person, words, actions, situations, or environments that make us emotionally uncomfortable. We’ll likely experience intense, excessive physical sensations.

When we feel excluded, it may be because we haven’t been invited to an event or included in plans or with a group of people.

I invite you to consider these questions:

When do you notice feeling EXCLUDED?
When you feel EXCLUDED, what do you make it mean about you or about others?
When do you notice blaming others for excluding you?
When do you notice blaming yourself for being inferior or inadequate?
When you’re triggered by feeling excluded, what does your body need in order to feel safe?
When have you experienced feeling excluded and how did you take care of yourself?

Expectations Are Not Standards Mar 13, 2023

Show notes

EXPECTATIONS and STANDARDS are not the same thing.

Expectations are our ideas about how we want certain situations to unfold and what we think that others should say, do, or be.

Standards speak to a level of quality we set for ourselves. Standards are directly related to our core values.

I invite you to consider these questions:

Is this expectation reasonable?
Am I willing to honor someone else’s capacity for or willingness to meet my expectations?
What value-based standards do you have for yourself or for others?

Are You Motivated By Potential Loss or Gain? Mar 07, 2023

Show notes

Some of us are motivated by the potential of LOSS, whereas others of us are motivated by the potential of GAIN.

If you’re motivated by AVOIDING LOSS, you may be a terrific candidate for an app like Stikk. You can read more about it below:

All About Stikk

“.. Stikk works by helping people eliminate this gap (between having a goal and achieving it) by using, what we call, a Commitment Contract. A Commitment Contract is a binding agreement you sign with yourself to ensure that you follow through with your intentions—and it does this by utilizing the psychological power of loss aversion and accountability to drive behavior change. By asking our users to sign Commitment Contracts, Stikk helps users define their goal (whatever it may be), acknowledge what it’ll take to accomplish it, and leverage the power of putting money on the line to turn that goal into a reality.”

If you’re motivated by ENSURING GAIN, you might need to build REWARDS into your goal-achieving process.

I invite you to consider these questions:

When do you notice being motivated by fear of LOSS?
When do you notice being motivated by the hope of GAIN?
How can you use this tendency to build in accountability to your goal-achieving habit?
What are you thinking when you’re working towards a goal? Does it serve you to think this?
What are you feeling when you’re working towards a goal? Does it serve you to feel this?
What are you actually doing when you’re working towards a goal? Does it serve you to take these steps? Are they actionable?
