How do you reset your life after a big transition, while honoring the places you’ve been and paths you’ve walked? As I celebrate the 100th episode of the Your Courageous Life podcast, I’m offering a metaphor for how we can think of this time of pre- and post-pandemic transition, and sharing the three essential pieces that you need when you reset your life to pave the way for a new beginning.

It is said that one of the most important things we can do when we have a bad day, is have a process to reset ourselves so that one bad day doesn’t become a whole string of them. But how, exactly, do we get conscious and actually do that? This podcast episode walks you through the things to do--actual actions to take--to turn around a bad day.

Got an annoying coworker? A rude teenager? A partner with whom you’re always arguing? A friend who you’ve become distant from? Most of us *say* that we want to create better relationships, but we don’t always know how to do that in practice--especially if we have conflict with someone else. Let’s talk about the behaviors that do (and don’t) work to create better relationships.

Narcissism and gaslighting are terms that are being thrown around more and more in popular culture--and they’re not always being accurately applied, which means that sometimes conflict is increased rather than diffused. In this podcast episode, I break down these two terms and how we can be aware of narcissism and gaslighting behaviors, and apply these terms accurately to resolve, rather than inflame, conflict in relationships.
