You Can Handle Anything!

I'm about to lead a 3-day challenge called "React Less, Feel Better" - and yesterday I completely lost it with my kid over a car incident. Talk about ironic timing! I was shocked by my own reaction, but here's what I learned about why we react differently to new situations versus familiar triggers. And here's why your "failures" are actually learning opportunities. Click here to join the Challenge.

Ever had someone give you a horrified look that made you instantly feel like a terrible person? That happened to me recently.

Have you ever had the experience where someone points out something you are doing wrong? What's your first instinct? Get defensive? Get mad? Shut down? What if you could handle criticism with total grace instead? Listen to how my student Sara turned a potentially awkward moment into pure growth. www.shiragura.com

In this episode, I share a real-life story from just last night that perfectly demonstrates The unSTUCK Method in action. When my husband and daughter got into an unnecessary argument right in front of me, I had a choice: jump in and "fix" it like I used to (which always led to bigger fights), or use what I teach. I'll walk you through exactly how I noticed my own stuck emotions, paused instead of reacting, and completely avoided the drama that would have followed. This is what's possible when you transform those tiny moments – building not just better relationships, but your own self-trust and resilience. Plus, I'll share the one question that might change everything in your relationships today. To learn more, head over to: www.shiragura.com

Do you ever get frustrated when things don't go as planned, especially when you're hoping for something simple, like having a meal together with your family? I recently had one of those moments. After fasting for Yom Kippur, I had this picture-perfect idea of breaking the fast with my family around the dinner table. But as I walked home from prayer services, I started to fume, convinced that they’d already started eating without me. Instead of letting the frustration boil over, I used a tool I created called The CLEAR Way, which helped me prepare for whatever I might walk into. And I’m so glad I did, because when I got home, my boys were sitting at the kitchen island, already eating! 😤 But because I had mentally prepared myself, I calmly asked if they’d like to sit down at the table with me. And guess what? They did. It wasn’t perfect, but it didn’t turn into a drama. I didn’t get mad, I didn’t hold a grudge—and that made all the difference. Handling unmet expectations without spiraling into frustration is possible for all of us. It just takes some practice and the right tools. 🎯 I share the full story in this week’s podcast.
