269 Stop Exploding! How to Master Emotional Regulation in Relationships

I Have ADHD Podcast

What if mastering your emotions could radically improve your relationships?
Join me as we explore the powerful impact of emotional regulation on our personal and professional connections.
Living with ADHD often means dealing with intense feelings that can lead to explosive reactions, affecting how we relate to those around us. By becoming more self-aware and learning to self-soothe, we can reduce conflicts and develop healthier and more fulfilling relationships.
We'll discuss how understanding our emotions can help us cut down on emotional outbursts and build stronger bonds.
Ever wondered why certain emotional patterns, like resisting or impulsively reacting, can harm our relationships? We'll unpack the common pitfalls, from explosive reactions to emotional shutdowns that lead to inauthentic interactions.
This episode introduces the RAIN tool, a widely used method in therapy and coaching, designed to help us pause and allow emotions to be present. Finding a balanced approach to feeling and expressing our emotions is crucial for healthier interactions, and this tool offers a practical way to achieve that balance.
