From Anxiety to Calm: Lessons from Aviation and Loss

Feeling On Purpose With Judge Lynn Toler

In this episode of Feeling On Purpose, we tackle a vital question: Can unchecked emotions lead to life-changing consequences? Through the poignant stories of Jason Williams and Megan Kellerman, we delve into the impact of unmanaged emotions and explore why regular emotional check-ins are essential.

Reflecting on personal experiences with anxiety and loss, I emphasize the importance of maintaining emotional awareness, especially in our fast-paced world shaped by the lingering effects of COVID-19 and social media. Learn practical strategies, including the use of a mirror for self-reflection, to take control of your emotional well-being and navigate today’s challenges more effectively.

We also draw insightful parallels from the aviation world. Discover how the calm demeanor of airline pilots, exemplified by Captain Sully Sullenberger’s heroic Hudson River landing, can guide us in managing daily stress with composure. By adopting successful behaviors and committing to daily self-reflection, you can improve your emotional responses and avoid potential pitfalls.

Join us as we also address broader societal issues, such as rising violence and the role of individual responsibility in fostering a more compassionate society. This episode offers a thought-provoking exploration of how understanding and managing our emotions can lead to healthier, more balanced lives.
