Lunchtime in Rome

We're all under stress. Stress impacts us everyday. It causes us to act and react. However, sometimes stress doesn't let up or gets to be too much and impacts us in a more negative fashion. It then becomes DIStress. What's the difference between the two? What's the impact of distress? What can you do? We'll be talking about that tonight!

Too often we feel alone. That's one of the main reasons we started this podcast. Some people look to identifying with larger groups to NOT feel alone. They find comfort in identifying with greater numbers of people, to not feel alone. However, there comes a price to pay with giving up your identity to that of the larger group. Sometimes, we feel alone IN that group. Other times, the group said or does something we don't agree with but now we can't give our dissent for fear of said group. What can you do? Well be taking about that tonight.

We are back from vacation and ready to sit at the table with you! It is always hard to transition back from a vacation. "Re-entry" is difficult and filled with pitfalls and emotional hurdles. Life in general is like that as well. There are few easy transitions. Tonight we will talk about life transitions and how emotional needs are impacted by them...and how meeting those emotional needs can help said transitions.

We would love to hear from you in regards to your most difficult and/or successful life transitions. It can be as monumental as a death of a loved one or as simple as the end of a school year. What makes it difficult? What helps?

We didn't want to talk about the virus for the past two weeks but we felt we had to. We would have been remiss had we not. We don't want to talk about the murder, protest, riots, looting, and senseless violence, but we have an obligation to do that.
Obviously we will talk about it from an emotional needs/hurts perspective. We will look at it from the perspective of others but also, and perhaps more effectively, our (and your) own.

It was so great to be back with all of you at the table last week. We are excited to share with you again tonight. We will be on the air again towards 8.
This week, we will be looking at how these past few months have impacted each of the top 10 emotional needs (attention, acceptance, affection, appreciation, belonging, comfort, encouragement, respect, security, support). How might we have been hurt and how did we get them met?
Let us know by leaving a comment if you have input on this. How much did any of your needs NOT get met? Where you able to identify it or did you just feel angry, scared, guilty, or unlovable?
Make sure you add any #dobetter and #cantdobetter and perhaps a #wtfawd (not a do better or can't do better but astounding nonetheless) entries as well.
