If we want to increase the intimacy and connection in our relationships, it is imperative that we show up as a safe person who creates a safe space. Often, the patterns we have established in our relationships are the opposite of safe, they cause our primitive brains to go into hyper protective mode and want to run away emotionally and physically. But when we can learn to show up safe, time and time again, we can create a space where our spouse may be willing to start engaging in vulnerability, in the openness and honesty necessary to deepen our engagement.

Difficult emotions can be, well, difficult. And because they don't feel good, we will often dismiss, ignore, or resist them, which can be unfortunate when there is so much amazing information behind the emotions we are feeling and why we are feeling them. When we can learn to be aware of the emotion and then step into curiosity to figure out what it is teaching us about ourselves, we become empowered to make the changes necessary for positive movement in our lives. And living in alignment with who we really want to be is one of the most empowering things we can do.

When was the last time you felt frustrated, annoyed or downright angry at something your ex did? If it was recently, or if you've ever thought, it would be so nice if they'd just do things the way I do them, then this episode is for you.  In this episode, we'll explore the concept of 'manuals'—those pesky expectations we impose on others—and how releasing them can lead to dropping the excess suffering you're feeling.  You'll learn that ‘manuals' are the unwritten expectations we create about how others should behave to make us feel good. By recognizing these manuals, we learn to let go of unnecessary emotional burdens, improve our relationships, and embrace the dualities of life, particularly during challenging times like divorce. In this episode I'll cover:  • Exploring the 50-50 principle in life • Understanding the concept of manuals in relationships • How expectations create emotional resistance • Recognizing personal autonomy in interactions • Emphasizing self-responsibility for our feelings • Empowerment comes from owning what you can actually controlIf this podcast resonated with you in any way, please take a minute to follow and give me a rating.To schedule your complimentary consult with Karin click here.For more information and full show notes go to:https://www.karinnelsoncoaching.com/post/ep198

In this episode of This Daring Adventure podcast, I discuss the liberating concept of 'Staying in Your Own Lane.' Based on the work of Byron Katie and The Life Coach School, it's the idea of minding one's own business and letting go of the need to control others. According to Katie, there are three types of business—your own, someone else's, and the universe's. I also talk about the idea of emotional adulthood and how adults have the right to live their lives as they choose. Trying to fix or control others often stems from our own desire for peace and relief, which ultimately leads to unnecessary suffering for both parties. Instead, if we "allow" adults to live their life as they chose and we embrace unconditional love, we can support others without the need to control them, thereby alleviating our suffering.When we reflect on answering the question 'What would love do?' we can ultimately untie our emotions to the other person's life and experience an ease and release that can enable us to support and help the other person, if we so choose from a place of love. Your suffering does not help them, nor does it help you.

In this episode, I bring you a life coaching tool called Emotional Adulthood. Listeners love the podcasts that they can apply to the rest of their lives outside of dance, so this one is for YOU! When we are in Emotional Childhood, we are operating more like children in our emotional lives. It is characterized by a relinquishing of responsibility for how we feel and act. In this state, you would find yourself making other people responsible for how you feel. You are unhappy because your spouse doesn't text you enough during the day. You are angry because your children don't listen. You are fearful because of your parents or your childhood or something else outside of you. It's not that these things don't contribute, they do, but in this episode I teach you how to be an emotional adult, take responsibility for how you feel and act so that you can be the person that you want to be more of the time. In emotional adulthood, we don't have to wait for others to behave in the ways we prefer in order for us to be happy. We take out the middle man. I should warn you though...emotional adulthood isn't easy. But it's worth it and this tool can change your life. Enjoy!

When you first hear the term “emotional adulthood,” you might think it's connected to when our brains finish developing in our mid-twenties.  But emotional adulthood has everything to do with your awareness of how your thoughts affect your feelings—and very little to do with when your brain finished forming.  I realized I was still in emotional childhood just a few years ago, in my forties. But from that realization, I've grown into emotional adulthood. And I'm excited to announce that I'm in the process of becoming a certified life coach to help you reach emotional adulthood, too.

Are you willing to feel any emotion? If you are, you open your life up to so many possibilities! Life is 50/50, and you'll feel both positive and negative emotions. When we can take 100% ownership and accountability for all the emotions we feel, that is empowerment. Realizing that every emotion you feel is because of a thought you attach to a circumstance puts you in the driver's seat of your life. Emotions are the fuel that runs your life. Your emotions will drive which actions or inaction you take in your life. Once you can tune into the emotions you are feeling and the thought it is tied to, you are in control of how you feel. This is called Emotional Adulthood. This means you take 100% responsibility for your life and emotions. No one needs to change. It's always an inside job. It may seem a whole lot easier to blame everything and everyone around you, but as you do this, you become the victim and give all your power away. This is Emotional Childhood. In the Hero's Journey, you will be faced with trials, traps, temptations, and challenges. You'll hit rock bottom, but it is only through those experiences that you can re-emerge as the hero that you are. When you process your pain and turn it into purpose, you become the HERO of your own story!! Want to get coached on this??

We share some candid and real stories in our own lives of becoming aware of when we moved into emotional adulthood from a place of victimhood and blaming. Enjoy our show! Commentaries: Amanda, "When we stay in that disempowered place, that's called emotional childhood. When we move into an emotional adulthood, that is when we start taking responsibility and realizing that only we have control of how we feel." Laura, "Instead of judgment, I started to look with curiosity myself and decided that I could have a relationship with my dad that was positive. And even, he passed about five years ago, I still have a relationship with him. The relationships that we have are in our minds and even the ones that we have from the past, whether they're good or bad, that's also in our minds." Laura: "Instead, I now am Laura and I've had experiences that have changed me. But now I've allowed them to be a source of strength and a source of love and compassion and grace for other people." Kendra, "But when we operate from an emotional childhood, we actually use a lot of blame. And so we blame others for how we're feeling or we blame others for the actions they do because in a way we're kind of trying to control their actions. Because we want the result that will make us feel better. When, in reality, we can't control other people. We can't control what they're thinking, what they're saying or what their actions are."

What is emotional adulthood? Emotional adulthood is deciding not to blame and complain and instead take responsibility for you emotions and the energy you are experiencing and putting into motion. Rather than do this, a majority of adults choose to run, numb, complain and blame.  All of which lead to chaos, confusion, frustration and overwhelm.  In other words, they prolong your progress, cancel your momentum and sometimes creates messes that take more of your energy to manage.  Yea.... A great sell for why you might consider investing in developing a healthy inner life.  This is not just your thoughts and renewing your mind.  While that's part of it, your emotions indicate what is going on for you on the inside which absolutely affects your outside. As you can imagine, when you have no idea what's happening in you, this will shift what's happening around you, at least your perception of it all. Ahhh, adulting.  All it's cracked up to be!   Tune into Spirit Real Talk today! Be a blessing! Subscribe and share Spirit-Filled Real Talk on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!

When we are living in emotional childhood we are not owning our attachment wiring, we are not stepping into awareness of how our primal panic affects our reactions, or we don't acknowledge how our selective feedback, selective memory and selective interpretation may be influencing how we are currently perceiving our partners words/actions. So what does this mean? This means we have to learn how to develop Emotional Adulthood. We have to develop skills and strategies for when our primal panic is activated.What is emotional adulthood?Emotional adulthood is when we take responsibility for our thoughts, our feelings, or actions and we practice being aware of our attachment system triggers and our response to it. It's when we take responsibility for developing our new belief systems. It takes back our power. Learning how to love ourselves, be there for ourselves and not make someone else's actions or reactions to us mean anything about us as a person or our worth. Emotional adulthood is when we are able to learn to hit the pause button, set away with communication: I need a minute, I can feel my body and brain want to react a certain way but I want to choose how I show up so I am going to walk away for a minute. Emotional adulthood is learning to think, act and feel on purpose and allow others to do the same. We no longer take ownership of how someone else feels. We no longer think we can earn love through actions. We no longer lose ourselves inside of a relationship because we need to “prove” that we are all in by being overly committed to someone else and loosing our commitment to ourselves. Emotional Adulthood is learning to develop a relationship with yourself that looks like learning to feel all of our emotions. It is learned to allow them, even when it is the last thing we want to do, trust me sitting through anxiety is one of the hardest emotions for me to sit with, I have learned that this may be my life's work, to learn to sit with my emotion of anxiety, but I am going to continue to work on it and I hope you do to.It's learning to develop new core beliefs that serve you in developing healthy relationships.Developing Core Beliefs takes practicing new neutral thoughts on purpose. So if you have the belief you are not loveable. Even practicing to some people I am loveable, will slowly allow you to change it to I am loveable. If you have the core belief, They will always leave and you change it to “Some people will stay” it will slowly allow you to change it to “the person for me will stay”. I will never find someone who can love me. Practice “ There are some people who could love me”, to “there are an infinite number of people who could love me”Remember practicing self love and self compassion when your primal panic is triggered: looks like, you showing up for yourself, you acknowledging your brain patterns, feeling your emotions, and then choosing how you will respond or react. It does not look like judging yourself, comparing yourself to securely attached people, or calling yourself negative names like “too much, too needy, or crazy” .When we are walking around with these yucky core beliefs that don't feel good, we do not show up confidently, we do not show up with feelings that will emulate that we love, trust and care about ourselves and as a result we do not attract those that will love, trust and care about us. So if you want to feel confident, if you want to feel secure, if you want to learn that you will choose a better partner for yourself, one that you DO ACTUALLY deserve, then it starts with practicing new thoughts, new thoughts consistently practiced become new thought beliefs, new thought beliefs eventually become core beliefs. This takes LOVE and PATIENCE and CONSISTENCY.

I want to share the biggest light bulb moment I've ever experienced in my life: I have full control over both my thoughts and my feelings. Not my husband. Not my mom. Not my kids (if I had any) Not my boss. Not my friends. Not the person making me feel small, dump or like I don't know what I'm doing. I - and only I - have full control over my thoughts and my feelings - and that is the BEST NEWS EVER. Because if you understand God's model for your human life, then you know that means, along with God, it's YOU and only YOU who controls your life on this earth. You control the actions you take or don't take, you control the results you experience in your life. If you're like me and didn't know this - don't beat yourself up - because this is NOT what the world teaches us. The world teaches us it's other people and our circumstances that control our thoughts and feelings. So that's how many of us live our lives and it's why so many of us have this strong desire to control everything - because we believe that's how we will feel better. Unfortunately there's many things in our earthly life we can't control so that leads to us feeling helpless and powerless. Join me for this podcast as I share the truth about this and how Emotional Adulthood is the path to living your most empowered life. People who cannot control themselves are like cities without walls to protect them. Proverbs 27:28 ERV

In this episode, I will talk about the third of five pillars of the foundation of balance: Emotional Adulthood. Full disclaimer: Some might be resistant to this topic; I recommend keeping an open mind. Approaching the topic with an open mind might be the thing that can make a significant shift in your life. Now, back to the subject. Emotional adulthood is similar to emotional maturity or emotional intelligence kind-of.  It addresses a specific part of emotional maturity that doesn't normally get addressed. It's the part where we legitimately take full responsibility for our emotions and use that responsibility to serve our highest thoughts and desires. Join me in this episode of Balanced and Free Mom Boss as we dive into the subject of emotional adulthood and learn ways to control our emotions better to attain the balance and clarity we need.  Key points: Emotional adulthood is outgrowing the default immature emotional bubble and taking full responsibility for all our feelings, no matter what someone else does or doesn't do. When you're in an emotionally adult space, you will be more empowered to be the person you want to be and be in control of your life and its direction. Taking responsibility for how you feel, making choices on what you want to feel, and not blaming others or other things is an indication that you're an emotional adult. Our thinking is what creates emotional maturity or immaturity. It is where all the power and responsibility lie for our personal experiences and create what we truly want.  Connect with Me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/balancedandfreemomboss/ Linktr.ee: https://linktr.ee/balancedandfreemomboss Website: https://brittanydowcoaching.com/ Coaching: https://balanced-and-free-mom-boss---brittany-dow-coaching.mykajabi.com/

Do you ever stop to ask yourself, how will I know when I have arrived, that moment where I can be at peace and I have made it? What if THIS is the moment? How would you know? Alcohol has a way of keeping you ANYWHERE but the present moment, which is the only place where true peace can exist. Either we are nostalgic about the subjective past of the "good old days", or terrified of the future yet to be told. Every moment is the opportunity to experience the fruits of your labor, until you step into that place of the compassionate witness, you will never be honouring you, and your life as it is in this moment, alcohol will always win the illusion of better.

Emotional Adulthood.  It's a beautiful thing when we learn how to take full responsibility for all of our emotions and stop blaming others for how we feel and for our behaviors.  It can be a process to learn because most of us were taught from the time we were young that other people were responsible for how we feel, but taking back the control over ourselves is an amazing, empowering process!

When you show up as an emotional adult, you will no longer blame others for the way you are feeling.

It can be so easy to act like a child by yelling, blaming others or playing the victim. But owning our emotions creates powerful parenting. Emotional adulthood might be the most powerful tool for getting along with other people-- especially our teens. Simply put, emotional adulthood means taking responsibility for your own thoughts and feelings rather than blaming other people. Emotional adults don't get offended easily (or at all!) and they recognize that when people hurt us they usually act out of ignorance, not cruelty.It sounds so basic, but once you start thinking about emotional adulthood, you'll recognize many situations where adults act like emotional children-- throwing tantrums, getting offended at small slights and blaming others for their feelings. On the flip side, we can't expect full emotional adulthood from our teens. But we can teach emotional adulthood by modeling it ourselves.

Part of being an emotional adult is taking responsibility for our own emotions.  Even in our marriage.  It is not our partners responsibility for making us feel loved, secure, and happy.  We have to do that for ourselves.  Listen in to find out how… Play In A New Window Download       Show Notes So today we are going to talk about how to quit blaming others for how you feel.  So in the world of life coaching we call this emotional childhood vs. emotional adulthood.   As children, most of us were taught that we can make others feel a certain way.  We’ve probably inadvertently taught that to our children as well “Don’t do that or Mommy will be sad”   “We need to share so that Sally’s feelings won’t be hurt” “You need to invite Johnny to your party so that he doesn’t feel left out” So all of these little things taught us (and we in turn teach our children) that we  have control over how someone else feels by what we say or how we act. So if we have power over someone else’s emotions, people can have power over ours as well, right? We believed that whatever is happening in our lives in the cause of our pain rather than being aware of the thoughts that we are thinking that are creating these emotions in us.  But if you remember in our model (which I teach in Episode 17) our thoughts come from our circumstances, and that is what gives us our emotions. But, as children we were not taught this or taught how to understand our own emotions or how to deal with them.  So even as adults we react to our emotions, act out, or avoid emotions, rather that taking full responsibility for them and choosing thoughts that will create the emotions we want to experience. Essentially as adults we are still functioning as emotional children. This is what we call Emotional Childhood. So much of what we have learned in this life is how to avoid pain.  We use things to “buffer” away our feelings - food, shopping, pornography, sex, netflix, social media, exercise, work, etc.   The only way to achieve emotional maturity or Emotional Adulthood is through self-responsibility.  So what does that mean?  What does Emotional Adulthood entail? We take control of our own thoughts and don’t blame other people for our emotions or the results we are getting in our life. Take responsibility for our own pain and also for our own joy Not expect others to make us happy Not expecting others to make us feel secure. Appreciating that we are the only ones who can hurt our feelings, and that we can do that with our own thoughts. And we need to do this at all times! No wonder it feels like such hard work to begin thinking about our own thinking and realize that we can actually choose how went to feel, no matter what other people do or say. This is awesome news, because this means we have power over our own lives.  When we blame someone else for how we are feeling, we are handing our power over to another person.  Handing over that power makes us dependent on that person for how we feel…a dependent is otherwise known as a child.  But when we understand that we are in charge of how we feel because of our thoughts, we get to take all that power back. So let me give you an example -  I have a client who has quite a temper.  When he gets stressed out at work, he likes to blame everyone else for his frustration and anger.  He does NOT like to take responsibility for it.  It’s always someone else’s fault that he is angry.  This is so disempowering!  He’s handing over control of his emotions to someone else.  But really, his emotions are coming from his thoughts about what is happening at work.  And if he would take responsibility for those thoughts, realize that he gets to control his thoughts and therefore how he feels about what is happening, then he gets all of his power back.  Now, he may still choose to be angry about the situation, but understanding that the anger is coming from his thoughts and not blaming the other person, he is still acting like an Emotional Adult. So when applying this to marriage - we are often looking to our spouse to make us feel loved, secure, sexy, and happy.  But as we know, how we feel comes from our thoughts.  And no one can make us THINK certain things, all of our thoughts are a choice.  So if we want to think thoughts about being loved, secure, sexy, and happy, then we have to choose to purposely think those thoughts and that is what will make us feel that way. But because we tend to think that our partner can make us feel these things, this is why traditional therapy often doesn’t work.  You sit down in a room with your spouse and the therapist says “ok tell your spouse your needs in this marriage and vice versa, and then the spouse is supposed to do what they can to meet your needs to make you happy.   But it never does, because they never can.  You are the only one who can meet your needs.  You are the only one who can choose your thoughts to make you feel how you want to feel.  Your spouse, even if they are trying, will never be able to meet your needs.  They may make it EASIER for you to think thoughts that make you feel loved, and secure, and happy.  But you are the ONLY one that can think the thoughts to make you feel that way. A couple sits down in marriage counseling and the the therapist says “Ok - wife, I want you to list all the things that make you feel loved and secure in this marriage” I need you to tell me you love me every day I need you to bring me flowers I need you to tell my I am beautiful I need you to come home from work and help me with the kids etc. If you do all that you will make me feel loved and secure.  And the husband says…”ok..I can do that”  - And he tells hers “I love you” every day Now she can choose to think “Oh, he does love me” and she feels loved or she could think “well he’s only telling me he loves me because I told him to” and then she doesn’t feel love - she feels resentment and anger See how her choice of what she thinks impact how she feels even if he does the exact same things??? So if everyone is responsible for how they feel, does that mean we can say or do whatever we want?  Are we responsible for how we treat our spouse and others?  Ultimately how they feel is on them, right? Even though you aren’t responsible for someone else’s feelings, you are still responsible for how you behave.  It’s up to you to decide how you want to show up in the world. Being an emotional adult is hard.  It definitely takes more work and more effort.  But it really is worth it. Taking the step to manage ourselves and our minds so we aren’t dependent on other people for how we feel is awesome!  Because that is how we can truly be happy.

Yep, my dear Millennials, it's time to be an adult at work. Sorry about that. First, let's define emotional adulthood. Emotional adulthood is where you take responsibility for what you think, feel, and do. What's the opposite? Emotional childhood, where you blame others for how you are thinking, feeling, and acting. Emotional adulthood means you are not at the affect of your circumstances. You aren't blaming your boss, coworkers, or the company you work for. You understand that, no matter what is or isn't happening at your work, it is totally within your control to think positive thoughts, feel good, and act in a way that serves you. I can hear you now. “You don't know my situation.” You think you are a special snowflake…that your circumstances do cause you to feel bad. Let me ask you this: What's the upside of abdicating responsibility for your life to someone else? Especially someone you may not even particularly like. You are giving that other person far too much power over your emotional life. Abdicating responsibility for how you feel at work is incredibly disempowering. You become a victim, and the other person becomes the villain. Do you really want to think of yourself as a victim? I didn't think so. By abdicating responsibility, you will fuel an action you don't want to be taking. You might: -Avoid the other person. -Talk about the person behind their back. -Vent your rage to your significant other. -Slack off on your job performance. -Become passive-aggressive toward that person. None of these actions will get you the results you are seeking at work. None of these actions are fueled by thoughts you truly want to be having. None of these actions generate positive feelings for you. Here's the problem: from childhood, we've been told by our parents, teachers, and other significant adults that we have the ability to hurt another person's feelings. To make them feel bad. This is absolutely untrue. When we understand that only we can affect our own feelings, the onus is off of others to make us feel a certain way. The reverse is also true. Nothing we say, do, don't say, or don't do can make another person feel a certain way. Only what they think about what we say, do, don't say, or don't do can make them feel something. An emotional adult doesn't blame anyone at work for their mistakes. An emotional adult doesn't throw temper tantrums when they don't get that promotion, that tony project, that recognition. An emotional adult owns their mistakes and takes responsibility for them. An emotional adult doesn't blame himself or herself for mistakes, either. There's no upside to blame. Ever. Rather, an emotional adult is interested and curious in the thoughts, feelings, and actions that led to the result they didn't want…the so-called mistake. An emotional adult knows that the only way to get a different result is to start with a different thought. This probably makes sense in the abstract, but will be much more difficult to do when a situation arises at work. Your challenge is to be aware of the temptation to slip into emotional childhood and try to catch yourself at the thought phase. Then, gently and kindly reframe your thought so that you get a different outcome. Replace “He's such an idiot!” with “He's doing the best he can.” Replace “She should never have been given that job” with “She is good at _____.” Replace “My boss never recognizes me” with “I know I'm doing a great job.” So the goal is emotional adulthood. And the path to emotional adulthood is self-awareness. Of your thoughts. Of when you slip into blame or a victim mentality. Of when you're beating yourself up for negative thoughts. One more aspect of emotional adulthood: People-pleasers are liars. If you're trying to control other peoples' opinion of you at work by acting in a certain way or saying certain things, you are in emotional childhood. You CANNOT control how other people feel about you, because their feelings about you are a reflection of themselves, not you. Just be you, and continue to grow and evolve as the human you are. Show up at work as the best possible version of yourself, and “let” others think what they will about you.
