  • Summary

  • In today’s episode of Seven Days of Sanity, we explore managing emotional triggers and the power of responding thoughtfully rather than reacting impulsively. Shawna shares practical strategies to stay grounded during emotionally charged moments—especially in the lead-up to the election.

    Key takeaways:


    1. Understand the difference between responding vs. reacting.


    2. Use breathing techniques and tactile objects (like keys or coins) to discharge emotional energy.


    3. Anticipate triggers—prepare responses to maintain your peace in challenging conversations.


    4. Align your responses with your personal values and the brand you want to project.


    Homework: Identify your common triggers and plan how to respond next time they arise. Take deep breaths, walk away if needed, and maintain your inner calm.


    Join us tomorrow for Day 3 of this series! If you'd like to dive deeper into managing emotions, check out Shawna’s book, Meet Me in the Middle, which is on sale this week and is now available on Audible.
