Am I right or stuck in being right?

by | 0

Being right isn’t usually a problem. In fact, being right can be useful. Our experience, knowledge and expertise help us make decisions, solve problems and navigate the world. We need to be able to form opinions, make judgments and stand behind what we believe. But there is a difference between being right and being stuck in being right. When we are simply right, we can still be curious. This can mean having a strong opinion while remaining open to new … Read More

Peace: When Being Guides Doing

by | 0

Peace is something most of us long for. We hope for peace in our families, our workplaces, our communities, and within ourselves. We often talk about creating peace, keeping the peace, or finding peace. But perhaps the deeper question is not whether peace is something we do or something we experience, but the place from which our actions arise. Perhaps the question is: From what place are we acting? When our actions come from stress, fear, or old conditioning, we … Read More

Too Strong? From Pressure to Potential

by | 0

We’re doing well at work and in life. We show up, take responsibility, and get things done. Often we do more than what is formally expected of us. This is what reliability, capability, and responsibility can look like in everyday life. And in many ways, it works well. In fact, it works so well that more tends to come our way. More responsibility, more complexity, more people relying on us. And because we can carry it, we do. At times, … Read More

Anger and Rage: Shifting Stress Reactions for Better Results

by | 0

Many people experience anger and rage. Many people are labelled as having “anger issues”. For some, these emotions are expressed openly. Voices rise. Words become sharp. Actions escalate. Homes become tense. Workplaces become toxic. A moment of anger can leave lasting damage, expressed in strained relationships, broken trust, and lingering fear. For others, expressing anger and rage feels unacceptable. So the anger is pushed down and hidden. Outbursts are avoided until one day the pressure builds and erupts in a … Read More

Conflict: Reaction to Resolution

by | 0

Most conflicts don’t get stuck in facts but in the energy bound in beliefs. They are often ongoing tensions where each side is convinced they are right. When the stakes feel high, letting go can feel like losing. In these moments, conflict becomes less about the issue itself and more about what it represents. Control. Safety. Identity. Being heard. And that’s where things escalate. While win-win negotiation models emphasize trust, active listening, and shared values, those qualities are often the … Read More

When Control Backfires: How Stress Reactions Derail Leadership and Parenting

Many adults in leadership and parenting roles rely on control to feel responsible for safety and success. Whether we’re leading a team, running a business, or raising children, we feel accountable for the well-being of others. When challenges arise, we naturally step in to fix problems, protect people, and restore stability. In these roles, it is normal to fall into automatic patterned behaviours to control situations and get things back on track. And yet many of us struggle to see … Read More

Why Working Harder In Times Of Change Can Be Costly.

by | 0

Working harder in times of change In the midst of change and uncertainty, a natural stress reaction is to work harder. Think more. Do more. Control more. It feels responsible, productive, and even strong. But especially in these times, working harder can subtly derail your results. Change activates automatic stress reactions. Without realizing it, you shift from creative responses to survival reactions. Calm is replaced with urgency. Grounded leadership is replaced with pressure-driven action. You may lack trust in others … Read More

Firm but Kind in a Tumultuous World

by | 0

Resonating with “Firm But Kind” In 2007, the phrase “firm but kind” first caught my attention through a parenting book titled Negotiation Generation: Take Back Your Parental Authority Without Punishment by Lynne Reeves Griffin. The words resonated immediately. They described a way of being that felt both strong and compassionate. I wanted to be that parent. Yet in everyday life, especially in the busyness of family life, living “firm but kind” was far more difficult than understanding it. I was … Read More
