CotC Episode 30- Pivoting Through Life’s Changes
 
Join Jessica as she reflects on changes in plans in life and emergent situations. This is a short episode brought to you after some unexpected situations for the Cole family this past weekend. Jessica shares ways she has been able to help herself self-motivate and self-regulate with unexpected happenings.
Some of the main keypoints:
 
1. Know your priorities/goals.
2. Take care of those priorities first, if there’s people involved care for the health/safety of those involved first.
3. Recognize and name your emotions/feelings.
4. Then create a plan and take care of it.
 
We all have unexpected life situations that happen. Try to mitigate your stress before these situations happen by becoming more prepared. Examples: Simplify your home/schedules, know those priorities, know ways to take care of your own maintenance issues, be willing to learn how to take care of things yourself.
