7-Figure Weekly - you're not responsible for their emotions

Nov 04, 2024 12:21 am

Have you ever found yourself walking on eggshells, afraid to speak your mind or take up space because you're worried about how others might react? I've been there, and today I want to share a powerful lesson I learned that changed everything.


This particular 7-Figure lesson caused a bit of drama on Threads; unintentional, but it highlights a few things. A few people made assumptions which caused them to get frustrated, others were upset based on their own experiences. Ultimately, the emotions each person chose were their own, which proved the lesson.


7-Figure Lesson: You're not responsible for others' emotions

Several years ago, I was trained as a therapist through the Son Rise Program® to work with a 3-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. I was excited to learn new techniques, but as I dove in, frustration set in. Why wasn't I better at this? Why did it seem so hard?


One day, during a particularly challenging session where I'd followed all the steps I'd been taught - joining, redirecting, positive reinforcement - I still ended up with an angry toddler and my hair being pulled. I felt defeated.


That's when the girl's mom said something that's stuck with me ever since: "LaTisha, you're not responsible for her emotions. She can be upset or angry. You didn't make her mad. She chose to respond that way. It's ok."


This insight was a game-changer, not just for working with children, but in all aspects of life - with partners, family members, even random people who pop up in your DMs after weeks of silence.


Here's what I learned:

  1. You have a responsibility to yourself, not others' feelings.
  2. Just as you choose your emotions, others choose theirs.
  3. It's not your job to shrink yourself to protect someone else's feelings.
  4. You can show up fully without being responsible for how others react.



Take Action:

- Speak your mind without fear of others' reactions.

- Take up space unapologetically.

- Remember: Their emotions are their choice, not your responsibility.

- Set boundaries and stick to them, even if it upsets others.




Final Thoughts:

As entrepreneurs and high achievers, this lesson is crucial. Don't let the fear of others' reactions hold you back from scaling your business, sharing your message, or pursuing your goals.


Say what you want to say! Show up fully. Speak your mind! Or leave 'em on read. Your choice.

Until next time,
