You Can't Think Your Way Out of How You Feel: Science of Emotional Regulation | Coleman Housefield

What if the reason your relationships keep struggling — or your success feels hollow — has nothing to do with your mindset and everything to do with your nervous system? In this episode of Making Of A Coach, host Josh Jurkovich sits down with emotional regulation coach Coleman Housefield to unpack one of the most misunderstood skills in personal development. Coleman shares his own origin story — learning to regulate himself so he could help his dysregulated daughter — and walks us through the science and practice of somatic coaching. Whether you're a coach, a leader, a parent, or just someone who's tired of reacting instead of responding, this conversation will change how you see yourself and everyone around you. Don't miss the live somatic drop-in exercise at the end — it's the real deal.What You'll Learn:"You can't regulate your emotions with your brain.
