GROUNDED IN THE MIDDLE OF CRAZY– Holidays often stir more emotion than peace. They carry a huge contrast of 'expectation meets reality'. People remember who’s missing, feel pressure to make things perfect, and reach the edge of their emotional capacity. In this episode, we’ll talk about what makes these “big emotion days” so intense and how to use a simple four-step tool to bring calm and clarity back into the moment—for you and the people you coach.

Key Takeaways • Big emotion days are usually caused by accumulation, not crisis—too many small stressors and not enough rest. • The Pause, Name, Ground, Choose process helps restore awareness, safety, and emotional regulation. • Grounding the body before doing mindset work creates peace and clarity for both coach and client.

Action Guide When emotion rises this week, pause and take one deep breath. Name what’s happening, ground your body in the present moment, and choose your next step. Then teach this same process to someone who needs a practical way to move through big emotion days with peace.
