In this deep-dive episode of our executive function series, I share the transformative moment that changed my emotional reactivity and the practical strategies that helped me go from explosive to calm, even in triggering situations.

📌 Key Topics:

  • My personal journey with emotional dysregulation in relationships
  • The critical connection between emotional control and other executive functions
  • Why suppressing emotions is like holding a beach ball underwater
  • How naming emotions creates the pause that prevents reactivity
  • Breaking free from negative thought spirals with simple redirection
  • The power of processing emotions in real-time rather than bottling them up

🗣️ Featured Quote: "I remember the exact moment that I caught myself before reacting for the first time. That pause changed everything."

💡 Strategy Breakdown:

  • Name the emotion to ground yourself and gain clarity
  • Use the "Or I could be thinking" technique to break thought spirals
  • Process with unfiltered thought downloads using the "AND" technique
  • Try tapping for anxiety and emotional regulation support

🎯 Coming Up Next: Join us next week as we continue our executive function series with more practical strategies.

🔑 Key Takeaway: Emotional control isn't about suppressing feelings—it's about developing awareness, creating space between trigger and response, and responding intentionally rather than reacting impulsively.
