When the Child Inside Is Calling the Shots

Special Noonday Virtual Session
A free 30-minute community masterclass

Have you ever walked away from a conversation and thought:

“Why did I get that upset?”
“Why did I shut down?”
“Why did I feel like I had to defend myself?”

Sometimes the moment in front of us brings up more than we expected.

In this live community masterclass, we’ll explore what it can look like when an old emotional reaction takes the lead—and how to create room for a more intentional response.

This is not about shaming the child inside. It is about learning to recognize what needs attention without handing it control of the conversation.

What we’ll explore

Reactive triggers: noticing the moments when your response starts to intensify.
Emotional regression under pressure: exploring what it feels like when a present-day situation brings up a younger emotional response.
Staying in command: practicing a simple pause-and-choose approach before responding.

This session is for you if…

You sometimes react more strongly than you intended.
You shut down, become defensive, or struggle to explain what you need.
You want a clearer way to reflect on your reactions.
You’re looking for a welcoming introduction to this conversation—not a long course or a therapy appointment.
