In this episode, Dr. Shaw re-visits one of her favorite topics and that is how to avoid being the cause of your own suffering. At first, one might think "how am I the cause of my own suffering?" but Dr. Shaw walks us through some clear and simple examples of how our own quick over-reactions can lead us down a path where we meet failure instead of success. It's really another sign that how we show up is what matters. The facts and events of our lives are what they are, but it's how we address what happens that makes all the difference. Later in the podcast, Dr. Shaw points to a parenting application for this same topic.
