What happens when we experience stress over a long period of time? We snap, either physically or mentally or emotionally.  

When the pressure cooker allows release, it results in a delicious dish. If the pressure isn't released on time, it'll burn you.

In this deeply personal and relatable conversation, Tracy shares a recent "snappening" experience with her family and Magda realizes that everything she does needs to feel as though she is doing things that are good for others or are productive.

 

Self-Coaching Prompts:

1. When you are on the verge of snapping, try to take a pause and determine what is going on in your body.  

2. Figure out which emotions you are feeling and what is the need behind them.

3. Try to reflect without self-blame and judgment - focus on the facts.  

4. What are you moving forward with and what is the learning and growth taking place?

5. What's one thing that you can do simply for yourself?
