The Courage to Show Our Pain
Posted on November 02, 2023 by kate blood, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
Feeling grief or fear shouldn't be something we have to hide.
It’s incumbent on those of us who can show our pain or fear to do so.
Not with apologies for our “weakness”, but with our heads up and our shoulders back. Unashamed of our humanness, unapologetically asking for the help we need, and unabashedly using those resources to heal our pain so we can be the full, resourced and resplendent people that we are.
It’s time to break the stigma of being human and having human emotions. Because we have feelings doesn’t mean we’re weak or that we’ll act on these feelings unawarely. Breaking the silence and acknowledging our pain allows others to acknowledge theirs – it normalizes the human experience and allows us to hold ourselves with dignity and self-respect and ask for what we need.
Isn’t it time for this?
