Have you ever signed up for a gym membership full of enthusiasm, only to see it go unused?

That’s exactly what sometimes happens when it comes to using The unSTUCK Method. We know it's there, we know it can help us, we know it's within our reach and yet, we sometimes forget to use it.

In this week’s "You Can Handle Anything!" podcast, I explain why embracing The unSTUCK Method in your daily life is essential for making real changes in how you respond to life’s emotional challenges.

It's not just about knowing the steps, it's about actually applying them to your life.

Every emotional situation is unique, and using the method consistently helps you navigate these effectively.

This is a short episode in a 5-week series I created this month that came out of a recent conversation I had with a woman named Lisa.

In this podcast episode, I discuss the significant role of language in managing emotions and enhancing well-being. The term "stuck" is pivotal in my approach; recognizing when you're "stuck" on an emotion is crucial because it signals that there's a method to help you move forward. I encourage rephrasing emotional states, such as changing "I'm angry" to "I'm stuck on anger," to remind ourselves that emotions are temporary states we can navigate through.

The ability to articulate feelings accurately not only helps in identifying emotions but also in adopting new perspectives to shift them. This mastery of language and its application in everyday life, as shared through personal and family experiences, underscores how powerful and transformative clear communication can be in resolving emotional challenges.

This podcast focuses on the importance of taking personal responsibility, especially when feeling emotionally stuck. Often, the instinct is to blame others for our feelings, but this approach means we're not fully owning our part. Taking personal responsibility involves acknowledging, owning, and processing our own thoughts and emotions. By doing so, we reduce blame and better understand the true sources of our suffering, rather than projecting responsibility onto others. If more people embraced this mindset, it could lead to significant improvements in personal well-being and interpersonal relationships across the globe.

This week's "You Can Handle Anything" is going to be slightly different than usual.

Instead of sharing one of my stories, I'm going to share with you someone else's.

And that "someone else" is the actor, Andrew McCarthy.

I'm going to dive into the intriguing story of Andrew McCarthy and the infamous "Brat Pack" label that shaped his career.

The film captures his journey as he revisits old friends and questions whether the label or his reaction to it caused more harm. It’s a powerful example of how external labels can trap us, and what it takes to break free and reclaim our identity.

In this episode of "You Can Handle Anything," I explore the heavy and often sneaky nature of guilt, sharing a personal story from a recent family dinner. After deciding not to partake in desserts my mom made, I was unexpectedly overwhelmed by guilt, despite making a simple, healthy choice for myself.

Guilt is a complex emotion that can quickly transform into self-resentment, reminding us that we're often our own harshest critics. During the podcast, I discuss how emotions are essentially energy in motion and how they can change, sometimes needing guidance to move in a constructive direction.

I'll walk you through the specific steps of The unSTUCK Method that I used to navigate and transform my feelings of guilt. This method not only helped me understand my emotions but also taught me how to handle them effectively without letting them control me.

Tune in to learn how to manage and transform guilt, and discover that you can handle anything life throws your way.

Have you ever felt incredibly strongly about something, only to find yourself talking to someone who sees things the exact opposite way?

Or maybe they just can’t see your side at all?

It’s beyond frustrating.

You might argue back and forth, but no matter what you say, they don’t budge.

It feels like you’re the only one suffering, but it’s likely tough for them, too.

This is what unfolded for me last week with one of my kids, following up on last week's podcast episode where we clashed over something I found quite unethical.

I turned to The unSTUCK Method to escape that frustrating deadlock because clinging to being right was getting us nowhere.

In this week’s "You Can Handle Anything" podcast, I dive into exactly what I did and the new perspectives I embraced to resolve this conflict.

Because ultimately, we may not control the obstacles in our lives, but we can master our responses to them.

Ever felt stuck on how to respond when someone close does something you disagree with? Reacting impulsively can damage relationships and make you regret your actions, while staying silent might leave you feeling like a doormat.

Here's a tip: try asking for permission to share your feelings. It’s a respectful way to communicate without overstepping, and if they’re not open to it, you need to respect their choice.

I faced a similar dilemma with my son recently. He sent a video from California that I found disappointing and unethical.

Conflicted about how to respond, I used the unSTUCK Method.

Ever wake up feeling weighed down by regret over something you did yesterday? 😞

It's a heavy feeling, and it can linger all day—or even longer.

This hit me hard after a recent Father's Day celebration.

We planned to spend the day with extended family, about 3 hours from my parents' house.

I decided to go, even though it meant rescheduling a regular Zoom coaching call.

All was well until things ran late, and I had to leave early to make it home in time for my call.

That's when the guilt kicked in, quickly turning into regret.

I kept thinking, I shouldn’t have gone. And believing it too.

Repeating that story only kept me stuck in a loop of regret, which was no help at all.

So, I turned to The unSTUCK Method to break free. 🔄

I share the whole journey on this week's podcast episode.
