@missclairebenjamin: For the person who's avoiding something and feeling guilty... I've been avoiding sending an email for weeks and built it up into something much bigger in my head. Avoiding things that put us in touch with uncomfortable emotions is part of the human experience. Coincidentally, this week I delivered a training on why we put off difficult conversations and techniques that can help. It made me realise I could apply some of my own advice to this situation and reduce the stakes. So yesterday, I finally sent the email. 😅 I feel hugely relieved, but more than that, it helped me regain a sense of momentum. Anyone else been avoiding something? 👀
