In this latest podcast episode, I shared powerful strategies for managing triggers and taking back control of your emotional responses. Here are the key tools to help you transform:

  1. Create a Sacred Pause

  • When triggered, take a breath before reacting

  • Give yourself space to notice your feelings

  • Ask yourself: "What story am I telling myself right now?"

  1. Journaling Techniques

  • Brain dump your thoughts after a triggering event

  • Explore what the trigger is trying to teach you

  • No need for a perfect setting - just write

  1. Grounding Strategies

  • Touch something physical (a rock, pen, piece of jewelry)

  • Practice deep breathing (inhale, hold, exhale)

  • Remind yourself: "I am safe. God's got me."

Remember, healing is a journey. Every time you respond differently, you're rewiring your patterns and growing.

If you're struggling with triggers, over-drinking, relationship challenges, or need support, email me directly.
