"Maybe your parents just didn’t want to deal with your emotions because they were raised by the silent generations and emotions weren’t even a thing."

Hello, Beautiful—Monica here, back again with a hard-hitting, no-nonsense dive into your emotional baggage. (Yes, we’re going there today.)

We’re talking about those neatly packed, possibly designer-labeled suitcases of emotions you’ve been dragging around for decades—some that aren’t even yours. Fun, right? Maybe you’ve done all the ‘right’ things—cleaned up your diet, taken the right supplements, maybe even dabbled in energy work—but somehow, you’re still stuck. Here’s a not-so-fun fact: You can’t out-salad your subconscious beliefs.

If your nervous system is still holding onto past emotional wounds, it doesn’t matter how many green juices you chug or how ‘clean’ your diet is—your body is still living in an old story. So today, we’re unpacking those dusty, forgotten emotional wounds that are silently running the show.

We’ll also talk about the oh-so-familiar conditioning many of us got growing up. You know, the "big girls don’t cry,""stop being so sensitive," and "it’s not that big of a deal" mantras that taught us to shove our emotions down like last season’s trends. But here’s the thing—what you suppress doesn’t disappear; it festers, manifests in sneaky ways (hello, chronic gut issues and hormonal chaos), and keeps you stuck in a loop.

And because I love to make things practical, I’m giving you a few journal prompts to help you dig deep, a breakdown of how your beliefs shape your reality, and the inside scoop on whole-brain states (aka how to trick your brain into rewiring old beliefs).

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering why you’re still stuck despite doing all the things, this episode is for you. Let’s get into it.

"I wasn’t even really allowed to express my emotions—Wendy the Whiner wasn’t invited, and big girls don’t cry."
