65. Understanding Triggers, Stress + Emotions with Dr. Lynyetta Willis
Apr 12, 2022 Episode 64
Danielle Bettmann | Wholeheartedly

Dr. Lynyetta Willis is a psychologist, speaker, family coach, and author. In this episode, I pick her brain about these pesky things that trip us up as parents: triggers, stress, and emotions.

She breaks down a detailed description of how you can tell the difference between a stressor and a trigger, and how that informs how you handle them long-term.
(You'll love (and relate) to the story she dives into to illustrate this point.)

We talk about what she recommends if you're looking to heal from your past (spoiler alert: it's NOT getting a Ph.D.).

She dives into her definition of Stable Misery: how to tell if you're in it and what to do about it.
And shares 3 questions to ask yourself to deepen your relationship with sensations and emotions.

Her advice is practical, she's extremely funny and down to earth, and every parent will relate to our conversation!
