Are You Emotionally Constipated?

Let’s get real. Most of us have been taught to hold it in, our feelings, our tears, our truth.

Crying? Nope. Suck it up. Be strong. Don’t be “too emotional.”

But let’s talk about what actually happens when you keep all that 💩 inside (see what I did there)

If you’ve ever felt like a cry is creeping up your throat but you swallow it down like you’re trying to push it back into the depths of your soul, or if you judge yourself for getting emotional, you might be emotionally constipated.

And just like being actually constipated, holding it in isn’t helping.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

  • Why so many of us struggle to express emotions (especially crying)
  • How your childhood shaped the way you deal with feelings now
  • The sneaky ways emotional constipation shows up in your life
  • Why releasing emotions is as normal as going to the toilet!
  • How to finally let yourself feel without shame or judgment

Your body NEEDS to process emotions, just like it needs to breathe, sleep, and yes, even poo.

So if you’ve been squeezing your emotions in like you’re trying not to fart in a silent room, maybe it’s time to unclench sister.
