Hey Friend!

 

In today’s episode, we’re getting super-practical as we discuss how to manage other people’s difficult emotions. I’ll share the single most important tool necessary to deal with anyone’s (your kids, spouse, co-worker, etc.) frustration, disappointment, or anger. It’s not the only tool you need, but it is the secret tool you need to use first.

I hope this episode equips you to have better relationships and enjoy more peace.

 xo,

Donna

 

How we  can deal with other’s emotions

  • If you don’t know how to listen, you won’t know how to lead.
  • People escalate because they are screaming to be understood.
  • Start by addressing inward emotions before addressing the behavior.
  • Two words to use: “What’s up?”
  • Don’t try to fix their emotions before they’ve expressed their emotions.

A Prayer for Resurrection in the Areas I Thought Were Dead - Your Daily Prayer - April 2

Just as Jesus rose from the grave, God can breathe life into the areas of our lives that feel buried. No matter how devastating the loss, when we seek Him in our disappointment and pain, we will begin to see dry bones stir.
