Listen Later

Ever found yourself snapping at your partner because they left the toilet seat up (again), only to realize later that your reaction was a tad... over the top? Or maybe you’ve just quit your job because you were so mad that Bob from accounting didn’t get you that spreadsheet on time? Congratulations, you've met your emotional triggers. These are the knee-jerk reactions that can turn minor annoyances into full-blown soap operas. But fear not! By understanding what's going on in your brain, you can learn to keep your cool and maybe even laugh about it later. Today, you’ll learn what emotional triggers are, the science behind them, and my top five ways to soothe those emotional triggers so you can feel in control of your life.
