275: Don't Apologize for Your Emotions
Category: Education
Duration: 00:14:52

Description:

Ever apologize to someone for how you’re feeling?

I know I have. I used to say sorry all the time for having certain emotions. And I absolutely hated being called an “emotional” person. Like it meant that I didn’t think rationally or apply logic to situations. I judged myself for it and internalized people’s responses and labeled myself a “basket case.”

Fast forward and I see the incredible power of our emotions. For one thing, we have them - there’s no getting around that. And the other thing has to do with how we relate to them and process them. Having emotions is not the issue. Addressing them, allowing them and releasing them when necessary - that is more important.

In this Momtra, I’m encouraging you to quit apologizing for feeling and instead find ways to connect more deeply with yourself and understand your emotions and how to use them.
