Yes, I cried. No, I'm not sorry.
from Kind of Crushing It · host Jessica McGovern & Natalie Milosevic
Jessica and Nat unpack the reality of crying at work, from bathroom breakdowns to emotional performance reviews and resignation tears that felt more like a breakup than a career move. They explore the pressure to stay composed, why emotional expression is often mistaken for weakness, and how sometimes tears have absolutely nothing to do with the situation in front of you. You'll hear about: 1️⃣ Why crying at work doesn't mean you can't cope 2️⃣ How exhaustion, stress and burnout can show up emotionally 3️⃣ The importance of holding space instead of trying to "fix" people If you've ever cried in a meeting, hidden your red eyes in a bathroom, or apologised for having emotions at work, this episode will feel very familiar. Jessica and Nat explore what it looks like to let emotions move through you without attaching shame to them, and why vulnerability at work might not be the weakness we've been taught it is. 🤍 What other resources we love on this topic: Jefferson Fisher on crying in the workplace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOe3pVxdN6U 🌐 Connect with us: LinkedIn Have topics you want us to cover?
