When Something Feels Off: Answering the Call to Emotional Regulation

In this episode of Trigger Proof with Mikki Bey: An Emotional Regulation Podcast, Mikki sits down with Dr. Nika White, award-winning DEI strategist, leadership coach, and author, for a powerful conversation about what happens when something feels off and how emotional regulation becomes the missing piece to true peace, confidence, and clarity.

Dr. White opens up about her personal journey as a high-achieving executive who had it all on paper but still felt emotionally drained, reactive, and disconnected. Through emotional regulation, she learned to pause, breathe, and choose, transforming not only her leadership and career but also her marriage, mindset, and wellbeing.

Together, Mikki and Dr. White explore:

The early signs of emotional dysregulation and burnout in high performers
How to build awareness and language around your emotions
Emotional regulation as a power skill in leadership and DEI work
The role of co-regulation in healthy relationships and communication
Why every woman and leader needs tools to stay grounded through uncertainty
How to move from reaction to response and reclaim your emotional freedom

This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating stress, overwhelm, leadership challenges, or personal growth. Whether you are leading a team, managing a business, or balancing it all at home, this conversation will help you stay calm, confident, and trigger proof.
