UNSHAKEN Scientifically Proven Ways to Control Your Emotions Before, During, and After Difficult Conversations

Description

No book on difficult conversations, conflict management, or negotiation addresses the emotional challenges women face. For instance, did you know that women suffer from anxiety twice as much as men do? Or that women tend to ruminate and self-criticize more than men? Emotions are good and expressing them is also good, but only to a certain point. While consistently suppressing your emotions is unhealthy, letting your emotions roam free and out of control all the time is not healthy either. You might hurt someone and later regret it. In this book, you'll learn alternatives that will serve you better, so you can be instantly confident. * You'll understand how your emotions work. * You’ll become aware of myths and stereotypes that are holding back your emotional intelligence. * You'll learn several practical strategies to control your fears and worries. * You’ll master the S.T.A.R. strategies to effectively control your emotions at home and at work. * You’ll know how to make anger, resentment and frustration work for you. * You’ll be able to implement effective techniques to kill the anxiety and get what you want. * You'll have a checklist to use when emotionally preparing to nail a difficult conversation. This book is based on cutting-edge scientific research, but don't let that scare you.
