In this episode, therapist, organizational consultant, and sought-after speaker Debbie Cardash and I tackle reducing drama in our lives through:

-De-mystifying how to distinguish between problems (that can have solutions) and ongoing situations that can only be managed.

-transforming our language around challenges

-understanding how the choices we make (often on autopilot) inform our daily drama level

-interrupting drama with the HALT acronym

-communicating our needs effectively

-reducing shame and blame
