Ever reacted in a conversation and immediately thought, “Oh no… why did I say that?”
In this episode of the Magnetic Communication Podcast, host Sandy Gerber introduces one of her most powerful emotional intelligence tools: the Emotion Equalizer™. It’s a simple and proven emotion regulation tool that helps you respond with calm instead of reacting on autopilot.
If you’ve ever lashed out in a meeting, shut down in a tough conversation, or rage-ate a bag of chocolate almonds after a frustrating email… you’re not broken. You just haven’t been taught how to regulate your emotions in the moment. Until now.
In the last episode, we explored Self-Perception, the first dial on Sandy’s EQ Switchboard™. This week, we take that awareness and turn it into action.
You’ll learn:
-
Why most of us were taught to ignore or bury emotions and how that sabotages your communication
-
What really happens in your brain and body when you get emotionally triggered
-
A practical 3-step emotion regulation tool you can use in under 10 seconds
-
Why naming your emotion is a science-backed way to reduce reactivity
-
How your body’s physical signals can help you regulate emotions in real time
You’ll also hear a funny and painfully honest story involving swedish berries, built-up resentment, and Sandy’s squirrel-like grudge.
The Emotion Equalizer™ isn’t about being perfect or polite.
It’s about communicating with emotional intelligence, even when your logic is nowhere to be found.
🎧 Listen now and flip the EQ switch in real life.
Next up: Self-Expression, where we’ll explore how to say what you mean without bottling it up or bulldozing others.
Because emotional intelligence isn’t just about staying calm.
It’s about choosing how you show up when you’re not.
