Episode notes
Walk During Difficult Conversations
- Have difficult conversations while walking to lower anxiety and support processing.
- Alex explains movement activates subconscious calming and makes talks less confrontational than face-to-face sitting.
Keep A Socks And Pants Rack Nearby
- Keep a socks and underwear drying rack near where you live to avoid extra steps.
- Alex leaves freshly washed socks and pants on a rack upstairs so grabbing clothes doesn't require going to the wardrobe.
