In this episode, Rachel talks about how you can distinguish the tigers in your life and better understand why we respond to them in the first place.

If you would like a quick tip on staying calm in the face of irritations and make better decisions even in the heat of staring down a tiger, stay tuned to this episode.

Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:

1. Understand the three types of threats that affect us — and which one is the tiger. 
2. Learn to distinguish what matters and understand our core boundaries.
