Triggering Others? 3 Must Have Tools to Handle Intense Emotions
In this episode of the Powered by Joy podcast, we dive into the challenging topic of triggering others just by being ourselves. Building on last week's discussion about managing our reactions when others trigger us, this week shifts the focus to how our presence and actions might evoke strong emotional responses in others. We explore this dynamic, and consider insights and practical steps to navigate these situations with grace and compassion.
You will be introduced to the powerful concept of your “Anchor” -personal truths that help us stay grounded when we realize we've triggered someone. Using a personal story about my passion for spirituality and how it once made someone uncomfortable. This experience taught me to be mindful of my audience while staying true to my beliefs. Using this as a foundation, we cover four key steps to handle such moments:
- Observe-notice the emotions and reaction, be present in the moment
- Curiosity without judgment
- Shift your perspective
- Anchor yourselves in truths
Through these steps, I encourage you to reflect on your interactions, consider the perspectives of others, and maintain your authentic self without compromising compassion. The episode is filled with practical advice and relatable stories, providing you with tools to navigate the complex emotions that arise when they unintentionally trigger others. The goal is to help everyone find more joy and maintain your commitment to your family and friends, even in the face of uncomfortable emotions. Getting more comfortable with this allows healing to become possible and a chance to grow your capacity for both the high’s and low’s of life.
Tune in to learn how to observe, get curious, shift perspectives, and anchor in your truth to handle these challenging situations with empathy and self-assurance. Whether you struggle with feeling like you are "too much" or just want to deepen your understanding of human interactions, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable steps.
