Ever found yourself in a situation where a strong emotional reaction flares up—and you’re left wondering if you’re being triggered, or if someone’s behavior is genuinely not okay?
Maybe your partner is connecting with someone, and you feel that familiar pang of jealousy. One part of you wants to be calm and open. Another wants to be chosen and claimed. Another wants to bolt, rage, or shut down entirely. You might even find yourself punishing them with silence, hoping they finally understand how much they hurt you.
Or maybe you’re witnessing something unfair at work. It hits something deep—but your emotional response feels too big, and you don’t know how to bring it up without seeming dramatic or overly sensitive.
In this episode, we explore the question at the heart of so many emotional spirals:
Is it me… or them?
(Hint: it’s usually both.)
By shaming yourself for what you’re feeling—you’ll only keep the wound intact.
And by blaming someone else—you’ll do the same.
