7 Good Minutes: Extra - Name It Before You Aim It: The Move for a Heated Moment

7 Good Minutes

Show Notes

You feel the heat in your face. Your jaw tightens. Your thumb is already moving toward send. This is the exact moment this episode is for.

Today's Extra walks through the move, step by step: find the one honest word for what you're actually feeling, right now, before you speak, type, or act. Not the polite cover word. The real one. This is a practical, everyday tool for everyday friction, not a treatment for anger and not a substitute for getting out or getting help in a moment where you're genuinely unsafe.
