Learning To Calm Down

Theresa and America talk through how they learned how to calm down when tensions are high. America starts off by sharing why she’s triggered by the phrase “calm down” in the moment and where that comes from. They talk about using productive and non-productive energy, their personal definition of “being calm” and learning how not to be reactive even when you don’t feel calm.
