She couldn’t sleep well last night – in fact, she was still shaking with adrenaline. She could not stop the physical reaction when feeling endangered as every cell screamed “Take it to the mattresses!”
So after investigating her rights and options, she weighed what it would take to resolve the issue positively vs. what to do if “worse came to worse,” and then called the mechanic.
She told him in a pleasantly inclusive but firm and calm voice that she would be picking up her car at the original price agreement, and that they could then discuss the next phase because they worked better together in person.
Getting off the phone, she reflected he had been wary, but receptive. Her body continued shaking uncontrollably at this next level need for taking command over her own emotions and another’s fear-based projections.
