Zsuzsa and Katrina met many years ago at a conference and loved catching up on this week’s episode. Zsuzsa shares what it was like growing up in the Eastern block, where the go-to way of dealing with emotions was to suppress them, even the grief of losing a parent.
We also talked about:
- Expressing emotions in learned over native languages
- Setting the goal to not leave the room!
- Learning to ask for help when the family go-to is to suppress emotions
- Falsely believing that she had to be strong & that nobody else struggles
- Breaking generational cycles
Grab a cuppa and watch below, or find the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all the usual places. Please share it – let’s start a #lightrevolution. 💛✨
