"I Just Couldn't Get Over It..."

What happens when we have been so hurt, so betrayed that we can't let it go? Part of toxic positivity is trying to pick yourself up and dust yourself off too fast. Or feeling guilty if you need to take a significant length of time to process pain. In this episode, I relay the story of Bob and how his boss, Rick, stabbed him in the back with no apparent remorse. Key topics:✔️ Bob and Rick: not their real names, just to be clear. ✔️ Have you ever noticed that the more you try to force yourself not to feel angry or sad about something, the stronger the emotion blows out of you once you allow it?✔️ Know thyself. In Bob's case, he knew he needed to leave a toxic situation immediately.  ✔️ Rushing through the process of grieving a loss is a form of denial. "Maybe if I just hurry up, I can get this over with." Human emotions don't operate in such a tidy fashion. Embrace your own journey. Need more? Email me: https://causeyconsultingllc.com/contact-causey/
