I Want Him to Stay Calm - Episode 20

What this episode covers

Today's guest was alarmed by what she saw on the horizon - mass layoffs at her workplace. She’d been doing well, trying to live in the present instead of predicting the future. But then the moment came where her partner voiced his fear about the layoffs to her. And her hard fought calm disappeared.In this episode, we question her thought: “I want him to stay calm”. Listen to the transformation she feels when she shifts her energy from fighting his reaction, to finding her own centre - a place where there’s no need to hide from change, a place from which true peace can emerge.Please share and subscribe if this episode resonates, so that I know you want more.****Your Thoughts at Work is a podcast where we explore the beliefs that shape our experience of work, and sometimes, our whole identity. Each episode features a guest - often anonymous - working through a painful or limiting belief using a method of self-inquiry based on The Work of Byron Katie. You can learn more about this powerful method at⁠ ⁠⁠thework.com⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠If this kind of inquiry would be supportive for you or your workplace, you can find me at ⁠selfinquiry.ca⁠ or email me directly at ⁠[email protected]⁠. I’d love to connect.
