This episode is about triggers. Not the triggers that occur from trauma or PTSD, but the triggers that happen when someone says something that hurts our feelings, a crazy driver cuts us off on the road, or our spouse says just the "right thing" that he/she knows will hurt... those triggers.

These kinds of triggers hit us immediately like a gut punch - we literally feel them physically before we even realize that we have made that statement or situation "mean something" in our minds. It happens so quickly that sometimes we don't even have time to consciously think before we feel broken, lash out or do something else that we may later regret.

If that has ever happened to you (admit it... we have all been triggered), then this podcast is for you today.  I'm going to share a 4-step process I learned from one of my mentors, Jim Fortin, that will help you to defuse the situation before it takes complete hold of you.

I LOVE this process and use it often. I know it will help you too!

If this podcast helped you in any way, please share it with someone you love. Sometimes we suffer in silence, and it doesn't have to be that way!

Dionna is a Conscious Coach that supports moms, helping them to create sustainable balance in all areas of life without the shame and guilt that comes with this important role!

After becoming a mother and investing in self-development, therapy, leadership trainings and more, Dionna saw a huge gap in the industry. Moms were being left out and really lacking the support systematically, socially, and emotionally to manage this role.

Likewise, becoming a single mom in the midst of a pandemic presented new challenges that came with being an entrepreneur and Dionna knew her purpose was not only in supporting moms but in their ability to make it on their own!

Dionna works deliberately, compassionately and swiftly so you walk way as the next version of who you get to be in this lifetime!

Here are some of the topics we talked about:

1.  How she found the courage to stretch herself beyond her comfort zone to make space for the good things she knew were coming.
2.  How she confronted head-on a few things she suspected were holding her back:
   • Alcohol
   • Self-Doubt
3.  Why going ALL-IN isn't harder than baby steps.
4.  How our brains tell us we aren't good enough when we are actually SHINING! (She gives an amazing example of when this happened to her recently).
5.  Her manifestation process and why manifestation can be challenging for many people.
6.  Why meltdowns are an important part of the manifestation process. Surrendering usually doesn't happen without them.

Enjoy and share!!
