Part of the “Regulation from the Inside Out” Series If you’ve ever apologized for things that didn’t require an apology — “Sorry for asking,” “Sorry I took too long,” “Sorry you felt that way” — you’re not alone. For many of us, saying sorry becomes a way to smooth discomfort, manage others’ emotions, or avoid the fear of rejection. But when apology becomes a reflex, it can shrink the space you’re meant to occupy and quiet the voice God has given you....

When we talk about self-regulation, it can sound abstract—like a concept that belongs in a classroom or counseling session. But regulation is most valuable in the everyday moments that often catch us off guard. It’s about choosing to respond rather than react, and it starts from the inside out. Our reactions often tell us more about what’s happening inside us than about the other person....

Sometimes we feel like if we don’t speak right away, our voice won’t matter. But often, quick reactions in the heat of the moment get brushed aside. Taking a pause and choosing a thoughtful response makes our voice more likely to be truly heard.--Reacting gets dismissed. Responding gets heard. Sometimes the pause makes all the difference.

IntroductionIn 'Knowing Yourself from the Inside Out', we explored how emotions, thoughts, and body awareness give us clues to who we are and what we value. But self-awareness is only the beginning.

If we don’t regulate ourselves, we risk reacting in ways that shut down dialogue instead of building connection, often behaving in ways that contradict our own values and self-understanding....

Learn how to regulate yourself from the inside out to handle challenging conversations with calm, clarity, and connection. Discover practical steps—pausing, noticing your body, naming emotions, anchoring in values, and practicing curious listening—to respond instead of react, at home or at work.
