Pour yourself a cup and join me for a thoughtful conversation with Carissa Sechrist — a communications and content strategist who believes the best workplaces are built through trust, clarity, and genuine human connection.With experience across major global organizations in the food, beverage, and entertainment industries, Carissa has seen firsthand that communication is about far more than sending messages. It’s about helping people navigate change, creating healthier cultures, and supporting teams in high-pressure environments.In this episode, we dive into emotional regulation — a topic that inspired me to invite Carissa on after reading one of her powerful posts on LinkedIn.

In environments filled with pressure, tight timelines, competing priorities, and strong personalities, staying steady when tension rises is a leadership advantage.Emotional regulation isn’t about hiding your feelings. It’s about creating enough space between stimulus and response so you can choose wisely, respond thoughtfully, and lead with maturity.We talk a lot about leadership skills.We don’t talk enough about this one.This episode is full of practical wisdom for anyone learning to lead themselves well before leading others.Connect with Carissa on LinkedIn and visit CarissaSechrist.comFor more sips and tips, connect with me on social and follow @LeaderSips @Leadspirations and @LifeisGrit on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest.
