Today\\u2019s first segment begins with a trigger warning, as I discuss some details of my own childhood trauma and the cognitive dissonance it caused.

\\n

And I talk about how this cognitive dissonance created the most difficult and damaging choice I\\u2019ve ever had to make!

\\n

In the second segment, I talk about anger.

\\n

Specifically, I talk about how anger is a very beneficial emotion for us if we use it right.

\\n

Self Compassion and Mindfulness give way to the awareness that allows us to do just that.

\\n

I hope you enjoy the episode!!!

Some people are well capable of developing these skills on their own, but most of us need a little guidance, motivation, and accountability in order to stick with it long enough for the skills to take root as habits.
