When we are raising the value and we are expanding love and capacity, connection capacity- we are getting a lot more space to master, to achieve higher levels of excellency, to travel within ourselves, to harmonize within ourselves in a meaningful way.
Ever felt like life keeps throwing you curveballs, and you just can't seem to hit them? In this episode of 'Untangle & Thrive', Angela McKinney, an addiction-recovery expert, dives into the tricky world of triggers and how we can turn them into opportunities for growth. Using Kobe Bryant's infamous air balls in 1997 as a backdrop, Angela explores how even our most humiliating moments can become stepping stones to success.
Kobe's response to those air balls wasn't to shy away but to dig deep and find the weak spots he needed to strengthen. It's a lesson in resilience that we can all learn from. Angela talks about why we often avoid our triggers—they're confusing, overwhelming, and downright uncomfortable. But what if facing them head-on could be the key to unlocking a new level of personal mastery? She explains that triggers often highlight areas where we're abandoning ourselves.
For instance, someone with a history of trauma might feel insecure because they believe their worth is tied to being desired. This episode is all about changing that narrative. Angela shares practical tips on how to shift our responses to these emotional landmines. By developing new skills and perspectives, we can transform these challenges into valuable life skills.
Imagine being able to shake off a trigger like a wet dog shakes off water, waking up to the present reality, and finding new ways to belong in your relationships. If you're ready to see your triggers in a new light and learn how to turn life's air balls into slam dunks, this episode is for you. Angela's candid storytelling and actionable advice make this a must-listen for anyone looking to grow through their struggles.
