🎙️ Episode 8 – Check Your Triggers: Leadership, Self-Regulation, and Emotional Agility

Welcome back to Leadership Lessons with Dr. Fredrick D. Lee II—your space to grow from the inside out.

In this episode, we’re getting honest about something every leader faces but few talk about honestly: triggers.

💥 Ever found yourself snapping in a meeting, avoiding conflict, or people-pleasing your way to exhaustion?
You’re not broken. You’re triggered. And that moment is your invitation, not your indictment.

This episode dives deep into:
✅ What triggers are (hint: they’re unprocessed pain points)
✅ How emotional intelligence helps you recognize and regulate your responses
✅ Why self-regulation is a leadership superpower, not weakness
✅ The neuroscience behind your reactions—and how to create space between stimulus and response

You’ll walk away with:
🔑 Practical “Change Moves” to grow your emotional agility
💡 Tools to lead with steadiness, not shutdowns
🧠 EQ strategies that help you honor your emotions without being hijacked by them
