How To Love Yourself No Matter What Amanda Hess

An emotional hangover is the emotional fallout that some of us experience when our circumstances create a heavy emotional load that we have trouble processing and end up having overflow after the events in question. Oftentimes this hangover can create very real physical symptoms that are difficult to navigate. On today's episode, I am sharing how to identify and emotional hangover, how to address it and how to reduce the impact moving forward.

Rejection hurts. This is a fact. It can be hard to know what to do when you are feeling rejected. What we tend to do is simply try and get rid of the feeling, but what we don't realize is that this makes the feeling of rejection persist and grow. In today's episode I am going to show you how to handle rejection in a way that allows you to go out in the world not fearing rejection. You don't need people to stop saying no to you to be able to create the things you WANT in your life. You need to learn how to be the boss of rejection. Listen in to find out more.

As humans we tend to be pretty impulsive, and that's because we are driven by emotion. The stronger the emotion, the more impulsive and reactive we will be. Since neurodivergent people have troubles processing and since we are more sensitive to emotion, we will often do and say things using emotional fuel that is not great at creating results that we actually want.

This is why I implement the 24 hour rule. The 24 rule is a way of allowing an urge and allowing an emotion in your body, while not choosing to take any action. This is not always easy, but it is always a benefit. When we implement this in our day to day life, our relationships improve, our careers improve, our self-talk improves.

Take a listen to see how this might benefit your life and possibly create some pretty amazing results moving forward.

When you are inside of a relationship that is not creating the kind of experience that you want to have, it is natural to want to complain. And when somebody tells you that YOU are doing something that they don't want or that they don't like, it is totally natural to want to defend yourself. But just because it's natural doesn't mean it's the best thing for us. And just because it's natural does not mean it's the best thing for the quality of relationship that we want to build.

I invited my former Life Coach, friend and colleague to be a guest on the podcast today and share a concept that she teaches called: No complaining. No defending. In today's episode, Maggie Reyes (Marriage Coach and Double Master Certified Life Coach) comes on to explain how applying this concept can create a major shift in ANY relationship (including the one you have with yourself)

Sometimes life get's hard and shit get's real. Welcome to a raw and unfiltered episode where we dive deep into the complexities of navigating life when everything feels overwhelming. In this episode, we explore what to do when challenges pile up, responsibilities seem endless, and emotions run high. Join us as we uncover the strategies to handle life's real struggles with grace and resilience.

It can be really disheartening when the things you do to help yourself when emotions get high suddenly seem to stop working. It can be tempting to believe in these moments that something is wrong, that there is specifically something wrong with YOU. But that's not the truth. The truth is that nervous system regulation is not a set it and forget it game. We are humans and not robots, we need to really look at how to approach ourselves by looking at where we are at right now. Familiar routines sometimes are the worst ways to regulate yourself, and that's why I recorded this episode for you today. Nervous System regulation is all about hacking your brain. Sometimes the most regulating things we can do are HARD. And above all, we need to remember that we are always layering our tools for maximum results. So if you are struggling with enjoying the things that have always regulated you in the past, or if nervous system regulation has not been something you've really ever thought about, this is your episode.
