Just Get to the Shore
In today’s episode, Dr. Robyne explores how emotions shape our experiences and how we can support ourselves when they become overwhelming. Instead of trying to problem-solve or force solutions in moments of distress and heightened emotions, she encourages us to first focus on “just getting to the shore”—a place of steadiness and regulation. This conversation will help you recognize how self-awareness, empathy, and compassion can bring greater clarity when you’re not well-resourced enough to handle what’s in front of you—allowing you to move forward with more confidence and ease.
