And if it’s us, how do we change? Cindy has advice to answer all these questions.Why do some people thrive on creating or being involved in dramatic situations? For some, it’s a coping mechanism. Creating chaos that they can then fix is a way of feeling in control when stress levels are high or life is tough. But when they can’t break free of the need to hop from crisis to crisis, it becomes exhausting and addictive. It pulls others into a vortex of chaos. So Cindy shares three key ways to break free from that cycle.Cindy introduces ways to distance ourselves from the perpetual drama queens that are sucking up our time.
