Доброго времени суток.
Amy gets to work. She writes down the stories she had shared with me and includes the components that make a story stick: characters, emotion, a moment, and specific details. She shares her stories aloud with her daughters. She reviews them most mornings and, most challenging of all, she consciously retells herself her chosen stories during the events where she feels most triggered.
As fate would have it, there is no shortage of triggers during the time we’re working together. Amy is working on her money story during a particularly triggering time: the holidays and ***college scholarship/college testing time***. Christmas is naturally a time of spending and can be an extremely common trigger for negative money stories. Between Amy’s two girls and her husband’s three kids, she has five to think about. Add to that the fact that Amy and her husband will have three girls in college at the same time, and just the word college is enough to send Amy spiraling back to the “I never have enough money” story.
Спасибо.

So in the context of this passage, the deadlines for scholarship applications are approaching, and the registration and/or ACT exam (or similar) is happening in addition to Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years with all the stress from extra events, gathering, and travel that goes with those three holidays. It's often a stressful time. Moreso if your child is in their last year of K-12 school.
