Summary

This conversation will change how you see almost every frustrating moment in your day because it shows you what’s actually happening underneath it. Dr. Kelly Flanagan explains the exact moment your heart closes, why small things feel so big, and how quickly disconnection takes over in marriage, parenting, and everyday life. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it and you don’t need anyone else to change for it to start working. This gives you a clear, practical way to shift from reacting to connecting, right in the middle of real life. Ginny calls Kelly's book the most life-changing book she's read!

Welcome to the 1,000 hours outside podcast. My name is Ginny Earts and the founder of 1,000 Hours Outside. And I have read a book. It is possibly the most life-changing book for me. You know, you never, and you were like, oh, how many books have I read? I don't, I, this book has already totally changed my life. I wasn't expecting it to at all. I wasn't expecting it to change my life. It is entertaining. It's so practical. And I felt like almost when you read fiction and you're like, you don't want it to end because you love the character so much. I read this like a fiction book. I was like, I really don't want this to end. I like it so much. but I need to end because I got to prepare for this podcast. It is called The Road Less Triggered,

1:47.7

turning conflict into connection with a single choice by Dr. Kelly Flanagan. I've already

1:53.2

ordered three copies for more people. It is wow. Welcome, Kelly.

This is officially the best start I've had to a day in a very long time just after that introduction. Thank you. Well, I'm having way better starts to my day because of this book. Okay, you are Kelly married to Kelly, so we have to throw that out there because that's really interesting. I love that. I'm very curious. I, you know, I've got a more unique name and I've only had one one podcast interview with another Ginny, and I was like, this is really weird to say my name over and over again. But you live with someone with your same name, but that's, we're not even talking about that because there's so much to talk about. Okay. I would not have considered myself. I've never heard any of this before, first of all, being close-hearted. I never heard it. And I would, I mean, I'm a pretty, well, a kind of an enthusiastic, fairly optimistic person. Yes. So I would have never even considered myself to possibly be close-hearted. But then when I read the book, I was like, I'm close-hearted a lot. Like, I'm close-hearted if I'm trying to finish something and my kids come in. I'm close-hearted to my husband, you know, like, you know, something happens. And then I'm like, oh, and now I'm doing the ripple jump thing. And I was wondering as I was reading the book, like, because I bought it for other people. Like I bought it for a of family members, I bought it for a friend. I'm talking way too much, but I want you to know

3:10.7

it doesn't even come in a couple days because I think it already is selling out. Yes. Like normally if you order a book, it will come like tomorrow or in two days. This is like, oh, you'll get it in three weeks. I was like, I think it's because

3:20.5

everybody who read it was like, I know six

3:22.6

people who would like this book and I'm going to order

3:24.6

six more. The

3:26.6

first print run did sell think it's because everybody who read it was like, I know six people who would like this book, and I'm going to order six more.

3:26.1
