With Mrs. B.

Your life is not just shaped by your goals… it is shaped by your emotional patterns.In this episode, we’re talking about how the way you relate to your emotions is directly influencing your decisions, your reactions, and ultimately, how you lead your life.Most people think leadership is about discipline, consistency, or motivation.But real leadership starts internally.If you are constantly reacting to frustration, overwhelm, insecurity, or doubt… those emotions are quietly leading you.And not because emotions are bad, but because they are going unchecked.In this conversation, we break down:Why emotions are information, not instructionsThe difference between reacting and respondingHow to create space between what you feel and what you doWhat emotional intelligence actually looks like in real lifeThis episode will help you move from automatic reaction into intentional leadership one moment at a time.If this conversation landed for you and you want to go deeper, join me inside my Build A Life You Love Community. https://www.skool.com/buildalifeyoulove/about

Asking for what you need is an act of vulnerability and authenticity. You get to ask for support and learn to control your emotions to prevent the build-up of negative feelings and resentment.

Check it out: The smallest habits or ways of being echo across all the aspects of your life without you even realizing it.  Your habits tell others who you are.  At the start of this year, I encourage you to identify some of your habits and assess which ones serve you well and which don’t.  Adopting new habits or reinforcing current positive habits that apply across the different aspects of your life can have a compounding and mind-blowing effect.

It’s important to remember that along with the the sparkle & shine, warm & fuzzy, life highlight reels… comes also the hard to watch game film that no one shares. The hard stuff of life. Don’t compare yourself to others who you think have it all together.

Beautiful things can happen when we face the hard stuff with not just bravery and resilience. But with an intention to grow. With an intention to REFRAME.

Even when we are sincerely loving another- if we are not in tune with another’s love language- the person on the receiving end can often not feel loved or fulfilled in the relationship.

If you suffer from Anxiety, I encourage you to look it right in the face. Figure out the triggers & work to address them. Be honest with those around you, and patient with yourself. Make it a priority to do the things that help and avoid the things that make it worse… and most importantly, keep reaching for balance and peace. It’s possible.

The value and reaction we assign to our experiences is based in large part on our own inner dialogue. We mirror this inner dialogue to the rest of the world. The only thing we should really care about is working deeply on freeing ourselves from ourselves.

The quality of our lives is directly affected by our willingness to have hard conversations and hear the truth about ourselves. Real growth & transformation comes from our humility and willingness to own our BS.

Many times we feel suffering is a necessary part of unconditionally loving those who are most important to us. But there is a way to energetically move from a place of suffering to a place of strictly sending love and support without the need to solve problems that aren’t ours to solve. When you want to help people you love, tell the the truth and then just love.

In this episode we chat about that thing we never really have… control! Why do we think we need it and what we really do have control over. And some ideas for more intentional release of control each day.
