Don’t be kind or I’ll cry!
Don't be kind or I'll cry!
It's kindness that pushes us over the edge.
One more rubbish thing happens, we double-down, take the hit and carry on.
Someone says something kind - the tears start.
It's why we don't open up to the kind people in our lives, friends and family, supportive colleagues: It's just too emotional and we know we'd cry.
“We get tearful when someone offers us kindness because it touches the part of us that’s been carrying things alone.””
I build supportive, professional partnerships with my clients and create a place where tears are a natural part of our work, particularly in our first few sessions.
Not because I'm kind (although I hope I am) but because I ask the questions that get to the heart of how you are, really, and how you want things to change.
That’s when you start to feel in control again, to look at your options, imagine the possibilities and make choices.
The work begins, and the tears stop.
Our relationship with work is one of the most significant relationships of our adult lives. If it breaks down, our health, our wealth and all our other relationships suffer.
Getting work right is a game-changer.
