#340: Shifting Perspective in Moments of Frustration

podcast 340

We’ve all been there – something happens, and we immediately feel the heat – or hurt – rising within us. Maybe it’s a conversation that didn’t go as expected, or someone’s actions rub us the wrong way, leaving us feeling frustrated or even hurt. It’s in these moments that I’ve learned to pause and ask myself one powerful question: What is my most generous interpretation of this situation?

In this week’s podcast episode, I’m exploring this practice and how it has helped me reframe challenging moments. If you find yourself reacting in frustration or anger, tune in to hear how you can begin to use this simple question to navigate those feelings with more ease and grace.
