In this Summer Shorts episode of Go Coach Yourself! Vic share a personal story about being heckled during a work event and being unable to respond appropriately in the moment.


What this story highlights:

  • How reacting without thinking can impact how we see ourselves and how others experience us.
  • Pulling on Viktor Frankl's work of creating space between the stimulus and response, Ryan and Vic talk about how to create space to react intentionally.

Reflection questions to consider:

  • How much space are you intentionally putting between the stimulus and the response?
  • If you had total control of your behavior, what would you do differently?
