The term synergy comes from the Attic Greek word συνεργία synergia[1] from synergos, συνεργός, meaning "working together". Correction: Becky mentioned a verse & thought it was Nehemiah, it is from Philippians 2:5 “In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.”

    Control vs Triggered

    Becky and Mellisa talk about how to know when you are triggered or someone else is possibly triggered verses you trying to control a situation or someone trying to control you. Like usual…we define our subject which is control and triggered. Definition of Control: 1. the power to influence or direct people's behavior or the course of events. 2. a group or individual used as a standard of comparison for checking the results of a survey or experiment. Definition of Triggered: 1. Adjective (of a mechanism) activated by a trigger. 2. (of a response) caused by particular action, process, or situation. Control and being triggered have two different feelings. This is how you can know the difference. There are some ways to remedy and heal from being triggered or controlled.
