Maybe there are times when you may not even know what you're feeling? If you grew up with immigrant parents, you probably know what I'm talking about. Some of the factors that play a role are: family dynamics, what’s talked about (e.g. not emotions), cultural expectations, the hierarchy, the language barriers….and MORE. That can make it hard to have a space where you get to practice saying what you want, or even thinking about what it is you want, or need. But you know what? You actually DO know what you want. It's just a matter of giving yourself that space, deal with that discomfort of actually finding out what you want, and need.
