Some leaders stay calm under fire. Others unravel faster than cheap sweater threads.

The difference? Emotional control.

And here’s the thing: it’s not something you magically “find.” It’s a skill — one you build, habit by habit.

In this episode, I’m breaking down 7 daily habits that help you master emotional control so you can show up unshakeable — on stage, in meetings, and even when your kid decides to test your last nerve before breakfast.

We are building on last week’s episode where we discussed “The Most Underrated Communication Skill, Ever” 

Here’s what you’ll take away with today:

  • Your first line of defense when it comes to emotional control. (It’s not what you think.)
  • The surprising move that stops knee-jerk reactions in their tracks.
  • A listening habit that makes you magnetic — and most people never do it.
  • How to share your expectations so clearly even the office cynic can’t misinterpret them.
  • A daily practice that will change how you handle feedback forever.
  • The secret to turning conflict into connection (instead of a full-on drama show).
  • The one mental shift that helps you see possibilities — even on the worst days.

Master these habits, and you won’t just lead better. You’ll live better.
