Being Professionally Emotional

Emotional Labor

There’s the emotion of empathy and trust and “I’ve got your back no matter what.” There’s also the emotion of determination to ride out a bad wave.

That’s professional emotion.

Then there’s the emotion of hiding, not being to blame, frustration about the process and defeat. There’s also the result of shutting down and not delivering on our promises because of fear or adversity.

That’s not professional emotion.

Your tribe’s not here to hear you complain; They’re here to see your smile and your passion whether you feel like it or not.

There’s a reason they call it emotional labor.
