The second episode of a 3 part series on why emotional regulation is so important.
It today's episode, I'm talking about how emotional regulation helps you strengthen your will. Your will is your ability to choose something. It is your inherent and God-given ability to exercise your freedom - you may not be able to choose every circumstance in your life, but you always have the freedom to choose how you respond to it. So many of us are emotionally reacting to the circumstances in our lives, and we live in a culture that says "Well, what could you do? You didn't have a choice." And that couldn't be farther from the truth. Yes, we have genetics and predispositions, but that doesn't dictate our ability to work with what we've got.

You cannot emotional regulate if you aren't taking basic care of yourself. When you are a young mom, I know it's so hard to do even the basics! But the point is to do what you can, and start with awareness of where you are.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
