This week's guest is Dr. Laura Jurgens, who is an Intimacy, Relationship and Embodiement coach. Maria and Laura talk about suppressing your emotions in the workplace, and the devastating impact that can have not only on your relationships and performance at work, but on your health and life outside of work. 

In most workplaces nowadays, having emotions while on the job is strongly discouraged, because we think that allowing feelings is the same as outwardly expressing them at all times (it is not!) As a result, many of us do our best to dissociate from our bodies and our feelings while on the job, thinking that makes us more professional and allows for better work-life balance. However, dissociating from our feelings harms our relationships, can be dangerous for our bodies and health, and it keeps us dissociated from the rest of our lives as well. Not to mention that it definitely does not help our performance and productivity at work.
