A Quick Way To Gain Control When Crisis Hits with Brenda Zane

ABOUT THE EPISODE:
You've probably been there - that moment when something unexpected or horrible happens and you feel yourself reacting in a highly emotional way. It might be finding the stash of weed or empty vodka bottles, or you get the call from the police about your daughter's shoplifting escapade - whatever it is, it sets you into panic mode and you're not sure what to do.

This episode is a short but practical one to help you in those exact moments when the "thing" has happened and you need to handle it, but don't know how. I share a simple 5-step process you can follow to go from freak-out to in-control, taking as much time as you need or have.
