Do you have a calming effect on people?

Assuming you mean a calming effect on anger... most times, yes.

If someone is upset or angry,
the key is to really listen,
and then reflect back what they've said in one's own words,
and check that one has understood correctly.
Anger is a secondary emotion.
Underneath it is one of three feelings: hurt, fear or shame.
If one can find out what is underneath
and get to the source of the problem,
most things can be sorted out.
