On any given day, you probably experience a range of emotions: excitement, unease, frustration, joy and disappointment. These emotions can relate to events that form part of our daily routines such as meeting with your boss, going on a date, talking to a friend, or seeing your partner after a long day. Your response to these events can vary based on your frame of mind and the circumstances surrounding the situation. A trigger includes memories, experiences, words, or events that spark an intense emotional reaction, regardless of your current mood. Whilst we know that triggers can illicit different responses in individuals, we do not often speak about how triggers could possibly help us assess how we manage the range and depth of our emotions.

Our next guest says rural women play a key role in supporting their households and communities in achieving food and nutrition security, generating income, improving rural livelihoods and overall well-being. The International Day of Rural Women is purposely held the day before World Food Day, in order to highlight the role played by rural women in food production. In many of the world's poorer countries, women play a vital role in the rural economy and they are involved in crop production and livestock care, providing food, water and fuel for their families, and carry out other activities to diversify their families’ livelihoods
