Do you step into an argument determined to win, only to leave the other person completely silent while the root problem remains entirely unresolved? If you find yourself winning imaginary arguments in your head before a hard conversation even begins, you might be dealing with the unique wiring of a Choleric temperament.
Welcome back to The Catholic Coaching Podcast with Matt and Erin! In Episode 302, we are kicking off a brand-new sub-series unpacking how different temperaments navigate healthy, holy conflict resolution. Today, we are pointing the spotlight at the powerful Choleric.
Using our 4-step conflict resolution framework, PACE (Pause, Assume Goodwill, Clarify, Engage), Matt and Erin break down exactly where Cholerics excel head-on and where they naturally hit roadblocks.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
• Why the "P" (Pause) is the ultimate hurdle for fast-acting Cholerics—and how to reframe it as a high-leverage "tactical pause."
• How the vice of pertinacity (stubbornly clinging to your own position) turns a dialogue into a courtroom interrogation.
• Mindset shifts to help you choose impact and excellence over simply "being right."
• How Cholerics can step into their natural superpower of leadership by modeling radical ownership first.
Whether you are a Choleric looking to grow in sanctity, married to one, or coaching someone with a high-will personality, this episode offers practical, repeatable mindset strategies to help you move from reaction to relationship.
