Why do we snap, shut down, over-explain, or get defensive?
In this episode of Making Wholeness Possible, we explore how anxiety — not anger — is often driving our reactions. We talk about threats (real and imagined), emotional contagion, and the four common ways we cope when we feel anxious.
If you’ve ever behaved in a way you later regretted, this episode will help you understand why — and what to do instead.
