What can we do when something our co-parent (or their new partner) does regularly ANNOYS the beegeezums out of us???
I share a specific example and the Reflective Practice I recommend, which includes:
1. Check-in with Yourself: Take a moment to assess your emotions using the Anger Scale [introduced by Maggie Reyes in Episode 98] and whether how you are feeling warrants action.
2. Embrace Curiosity: Ask yourself if your emotional response is proportionate and appropriate.
3. Clarify Your Desires: Identify what you REALLY WANT in the given situation. Whether it's seeking more connection with your child or feeling appreciated, clarity helps us focus on the goal and not get distracted.
4. Uncover Root Causes: Delve into what’s underneath your emotional reactions. I share the power of asking “why.”
5. Connect with Your Body: Pay attention to how these feelings show up physically.
Tune in to discover a holistic approach to co-parenting, where emotional intelligence takes center stage, allowing for smoother interactions. 🌟
