Show Notes

In your lives who would you say is your wingman?

A wingman can refer to a pilot in the Air Force or a friend or partner who helps and supports another person. They are there for help, support, backup.

Sometimes we feel lost and alone, like we have no one there for support and help or backup. In those times it is good for us to have a list handy of people who we know are there. Who are our wingmen?

So today, please take a minute to think about who those people are for you. We're going to talk about this, an experience I had with some of my wingmen, and the importance of knowing you are supported and never alone.

When we feel alone and unsupported or abandoned, that triggers a sense of danger, causing us to hide, close in, or get really uptight, sressed, and anxious. When we acknowledge the support we do have, it signals to our bodies and brains safety and security. Then we are better able to cope, work, nurture, and support the ones we love.
