The Anger Facade- What’s Really Going On?

This workshop will incorporate questions that foster a group discussion pertaining to why individuals react with anger and how negative emotions usually underlie and contribute to anger. The discussion will offer tips for individuals to implement so they can begin to increase their awareness around their anger triggers in a systematic manner, empowering them to respond, rather than react, when faced with difficult situations. Attendees will also be introduced to processing negative emotions as a method to mitigate their anger responses. 

By the end of the workshop, participants will:

  1. Improve awareness around anger triggers.

  2. Develop a protocol to implement when triggers arise.

  3. Recognize underlying emotions that lead to anger.

After seeing the benefits of coaching first hand, she founded Thought Work, MD to help physicians and professional women learn how to identify, manage, and then let go of what is not serving them through transformational mindset coaching. Through her coaching, she helps powerful women learn how to stay ahead of their anger so that they show up calm, collected and in control, ready to lead and execute with poise. Arpita is dedicated to helping physicians and women find their inner voice, decide if it is serving them, and then help them advance to empower themselves to achieve success, while being happier doing so.
