This episode is about daily situational and relational stressors

What stresses people out is different. 

For you, it may be when driving - drivers who cut you off, or don’t signal or simply being traffic can be a stressor.

We just did a month on Money Management and the topic of personal finances may stress you out.

What are the stressors in your life?

If you're not clear on the stressors, think of what you tend to vent about.

What are the stories you tell yourself?

What stories or assumptions do you tell yourself? How do you fill in the blanks related to the stressor?

What’s the root of my stress? 

When and where did you learn this response?

Please note: next month's worksheet is the Self-Care Worksheet. In your answers for the Stress Management Worksheet, think intervention meaning what to do when stress happens. Save your prevention strategies for the Self-Care Worksheet.

You Are Enough ❤️

Life can get difficult. Jobs are lost, hearts are broken, plans get changed, things go wrong. We’ve all been there.

But when life gives you lemons, how do you cope? How do you navigate through grief with resilience? How do you control your emotions instead of letting them control you?

Maybe you have unhealthy coping strategies. Maybe you bury your emotions, talk down to yourself, or power through the day without allowing yourself even a moment of rest and reflection.
