The Hardest Skill I Learned In My Second Season
The most difficult conversations don’t fall apart because of what is said; they fall apart because of what we feel while saying it. Controlling your emotions is not about pushing them away. It is about learning how to stay present with them, so they don’t take the wheel. It is about leading yourself through the…
