68. How To Start Journaling Through Triggering Emotions

Are you wanting to start creating some better daily habits to help you navigate triggering emotions? When people start to journal, they usually start because they either want to create a healthier routine or they have A LOT of emotional stuff going on in their life. (AKA: ISH) I'm here for the ISH.

In this episode, I walk you through a journal prompt flow to journal through anxiety, frustration, hopelessness, anger, and so much more.

Here's the journal prompt flow...

1. Think about all the different areas of your life and just start writing

2. Why do these areas of your life feel heavy right now?

3. Have they always felt heavy? If yes: where did you adopt this from? If no, when did you start feeling it?

4. If this has been a situation that’s been going on a while, could it be benefiting you by staying this way? 

5. In an ideal world, what would this particular situation be or feel like?

6. What can I do to inch closer to that? (Do, Plan, Talk, Short/Long term)

About the Podcast

Beyond Awareness: Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Beyond Awareness (formerly Journal Entries) is for successful women in leadership and business who know exactly what they need to do but can't make themselves do it.

You know you need to prioritize yourself, delegate more, set boundaries, stop bringing work home. You've tried therapy, coaching, retreats. You know the solution - but you either can't follow through, or when you DO, it doesn't stick.

Host Samantha Hawley helps business owners and executives earning $100k+ excavate the root beliefs underneath the execution gap. Why do you keep not doing the thing? Why doesn't it feel better when you do? Using strategic journaling and emotional excavation, we go beyond awareness into why you're actually stuck in the pattern.

This isn't about more tactics or tips. This is about understanding why awareness isn't enough and what actually needs to shift for you to change.

You'll hear about: decision fatigue, why you can't prioritize yourself, nervous system regulation, being present with your kids, root cause of overwhelm, why boundaries don't stick, self-sabotage patterns, and how your internal state impacts everything.

Perfect for: Female CFOs, VPs, directors, executives, business owners, and women in leadership who are tired of knowing what's wrong but not being able to change it.
