Emotional Debt: How Suppression Sparks Retaliation—and What to Do Instead
In today’s episode, Martina dives deep unpacking how suppressing your true emotions can lead to that explosive “other side” — a reaction fueled by pent-up anger rather than empowered, integrated self-loyalty.
Martina shares eye-opening research on how emotional suppression can heighten stress and even affect physical health, and she explains why retaliatory outbursts aren’t the answer.
Key Points:
• Understanding the buildup of “emotional debt” from constantly putting others first.
• The difference between a reactive, vengeful response and the integrated, confident self that sets healthy boundaries.
• Research insights, including findings on emotional suppression from the Journal of Psychosomatic Research, and how self-compassion can transform our response to conflict.
• Practical strategies for expressing your needs before reaching the breaking point, so you can maintain your authenticity without burning bridges.
Join Martina as she offers practical tips and heartfelt insights into breaking the cycle of people-pleasing, and reclaiming your power—before your “other side” has a chance to take over.
