Most regret does not come from what someone else did. It comes from what we said before we had a chance to think.
In this conversation with Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, we talk about something she calls the love pause. Just three seconds to breathe and regulate before you respond.
Three seconds is longer than it sounds. Long enough to move from reactivity to regulation. Long enough to change what happens next.
It is not complicated. It just has to become a ritual, something you remind yourself to do until it becomes your new operating system.
Are you responding from regulation, or reacting from shame?
