#125 - How Many Baskets Is Your Safety Sitting In? (How to Stop Reacting to Emotional Whiplash)

One minute you feel safe, supported and loved. An hour later the ground has shifted and it's fear, dread and unpredictability. That's emotional whiplash, and if you've ever been on that rollercoaster you know how exhausting it is.In this solo episode I break down exactly what to do in the seconds, minutes and hours after the whiplash hits: the one message that buys you a buffer, grounding yourself in your body instead of numbing out, getting into the other person's shoes, honestly checking your own part in it, and acknowledging their feelings either way. I also take on the question everyone asks, why should I be the one doing all this work? It all leads to the bigger question that decides everything: how many baskets is your safety sitting in?Whether it's a partner, a boss or anyone your sense of safety depends on, this is a practical playbook for the moment it hits.If this one lands, share it with someone on their own rollercoaster and drop a comment to say so.🎙️ MY STUFFAwaken Out of Context: https://awakenoutofcontext.comThe Chapter System: https://thechaptersystem.com
