Episode 41: Pausing in the Gap between Emotion + Reaction

On today's episode of The Momlife Mindset podcast, I share about some recent hurdles we've had to manage in our household. Long story short - we've had A LOT of unexpected circumstances pop up in our life this year and almost all of it has been out of our control. That can be hard to swallow - right? And it can become so overwhelming and triggering and just plain brutal. Please tell me I'm not alone! With that said - I found myself really working hard to take a pause in my overwhelm and thought this topic may be helpful for you too. After digging in to more of the unexpected we've been managing, I started to draw the parallel of how powerful this life skill truly is. Learning to PAUSE and put a hard stop on any action, reaction or forward movement is a gift that takes practice. A lot of practice. And it's not perfect. But it allows us to really gain clarity and remember that we have the control over how we want to show up for ourselves and others. Learning to pause in the gap. Learning the hard stop. Learning that even when we're triggered...we can still choose. It's something our entire family is working on and my hope and prayer is that this message encourages you in some way today.
