Dear Reader,
If you’re new to Carer Mentor, ‘Hi!’ I’m Victoria. I’m a Caregiver, Mentor, and Advocate. I share my skills, experience, and hub of resources in a mission to support current and future Caregivers in the sections Resonance and The CAPE (Care, be Aware, Prepare and Engage).
In this ‘Mentoring Section’, the content focuses on Self-Development, Career Strategies, and Inspiration.
This article is part of a series focused on ‘Emotional Agility.’ The mindset and tools have been essential to me, and I advocate their benefits to my mentoring clients and other caregivers.
At its core, emotional agility is about the capacity to see ourselves and others in a wholehearted and healthy way. It’s a set of essential psychological skills for our complex world—a world that often chooses not to see. It is more than just a skill set I teach, it’s what I try to live by, and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to share it with you.- Dr. Susan David
‘Stepping Out’ is one of several tools, a skill we can practice to improve Emotional Agility.
Watch this short video to learn how "stepping out" can help you feel an emotion or think a thought but not be controlled by it.
Susan David encourages you to ask yourself, "Who is in charge? The thinker or the thought?"

Love this idea of emotional agility - quite similar to an idea I've been playing with called nurturing emotional fluidity. Thanks for sharing Victoria!
