Stress Busters: Fight, Flight, Tend, or Befriend?

An Imperfectly Perfect Life - Life Unscripted: Navigating Divorce, Dating, Friendships, Careers, Family - and the 50s

Ever felt overwhelmed by the whirlwind of life's major milestones and unexpected turns? This week on An Imperfectly Perfect Life Life Unscripted, I share my recent roller coaster ride—celebrating my son's graduation in LA, embarking on a mother-daughter adventure at Bottle Rock in Napa, and selling my house in a jaw-dropping 36 hours. Discover how these experiences, coupled with the joy and chaos of relocating with two big Labradors, have shaped my days and tested my resilience. I open up about the stress of finding a new home that fits my family's needs and how I've managed to stay grounded through it all.
You'll also hear about my personal strategies for handling life's pressures, including the surprising addition of two new theme songs that uplift my mornings—"Counting my Blessings" by Shep Schulter and "Good Day" by Forrest Frank. We'll explore the different ways we respond to stress (fight, flight, tend, and befriend) and how music and mindfulness can help us navigate tough times. Whether you're in need of some practical stress management tips or simply a dose of inspiration, this episode promises to deliver heart, humor, and a whole lot of real talk. Tune in and join me on this unscripted journey!
