"If you think about yourself as a driver of a car, and your feelings as backseat passengers, they're telling you information. A lot of us were raised to try to kick them out of the car — but you can't kick feelings out of the car. The goal is to stay in the driver's seat while knowing the feelings are there as passengers, but simply not allowing them to be the driver. Or think of it as: I'm the CEO, my feelings are on the board, but they are not chair of the board."

"Even before involving your kid, to be able to finish the sentence is so powerful as a parent. 'I expect blank to happen and I can cope with that.' I expect my kid to give me a hard time coming to dinner, and I can cope with that. The expectation plus the reminder that we can cope allows us to have a very different reaction when those moments come."
