Do you think your lack of crying is a super power?
I didn’t cry for years in high school, and I felt so proud of myself for that!
I didn’t cry when I watched sad movies.
I didn’t cry when I felt disappointed, sad, or angry.
I didn’t cry when sad things occurred around me.
I can honestly remember two distinct times I really cried, and that’s when my grandmother died and I got into a car accident.
And this was so different to how I used to be! I used to cry easily and often, even if it was over something sad on the news!
So, I took this new, “tough” version of me as a good sign!
I gave myself a pat on the back for not crying and told myself, “Mahlet, I can’t remember the last time you cried, you are SO strong!”
Wrong! I was so disconnected from my body that I was numb.
I struggled to even feel much happiness or peace back then.
I was so much in fight-or-flight that I primarily felt fear, worry, and stress and pushed out anything else! But even those emotions were running on autopilot inside of my body, and I still didn’t cry!
It wasn’t until I connected to my feminine energy in college that I really started to feel and boy did all those trapped emotions of years of not crying come out, LOL.
And now, I feel intense amounts of gratitude, peace, and joy on a regular basis, without anything new happening to “make” me feel wonderful. It’s my base level state now to feel so good!
And, I also feel the emotions that don’t make me feel so good. I feel them, release them, and return back to my happy state!
I feel so much gratitude sometimes that it leads me to tears!
I went from rarely feeling happiness or gratitude to crying tears of gratitude!
I completely re-wired myself to take on a completely different identity.
And now I have the pinkprint to help you do the same!
Are you ready to help your women employees experience more happiness and joy?
