Want to live your fullest life? It’s going to take healing. Today’s guest, Joshua Wenner has overcome so much adversity and loss in his life and has developed such profound wisdom around emotional resilience. We talk about how childhood wounds can unconsciously drive our behaviors and our relationships with ourselves and our partners if left unhealed. Joshua shares his perspective on how we can learn to recognize when our nervous system is dysregulated, and simple techniques to calm ourselves down especially when it comes to times we’re triggered by our partner. Tune in to hear the power of emotional regulation in our relationships and beyond.
