Speaking Your Brand: Public Speaking Tips and Strategies

176: Handling Triggers, Reactions, and Emotions in Ourselves and Others with Lara Currie


Listen Later

We’re all feeling a lot of emotions and seeing reactions and triggers in ourselves and others.

Whether we’re having one-on-one conversations with family and friends, interacting on social media, watching the news, or even speaking to audiences, how can we better understand how to recognize triggers in ourselves and others and handle them better?

My guest is Lara Currie, who specializes in helping her clients, primarily women in high-stress fields, handle difficult conversations and difficult people.

In this episode, Lara and I talk about:

  • The 4 triggers people can have
  • The secret gifts of emotions
  • Mask emotions and what they’re masking
  • The importance of self-awareness
  • Strategies for handling a difficult person in your audience when you’re speaking (whether in-person or on a webinar)

About My Guest: Lara Currie is passionate about uncovering dysfunctional communication patterns, combating manipulative tactics, while empowering women business owners in high-stress fields to communicate confidently. She is a podcaster, speaker & trainer, and the author of Difficult Happens; How Triggers, Boundaries, & Emotions Impact YOU every day. With 29 plus years of experience in high-conflict positions, she has a unique and intuitive understanding of why people act - and react - the way they do.
