Holding Two Truths at Once: The Emotional Complexity of Growth


Growth is rarely clean or linear—it often brings conflicting emotions that feel difficult to reconcile. You can feel grateful and exhausted, confident and uncertain, fulfilled and ready for more—all at the same time. This session introduces the concept of psychological flexibility and helps participants move away from rigid “either/or” thinking into a more adaptive, grounded way of navigating change.


Key Points:


  • Why the brain prefers certainty and struggles with contradiction
  • How “either/or” thinking increases internal tension and confusion
  • The role of emotional invalidation in high-achieving women
  • Understanding both/and thinking as a leadership and life skill


Practical Takeaways:

  • Language shifts that reduce inner conflict (e.g., “I can feel this and that”)
  • Tools to increase psychological flexibility in decision-making
  • How to normalize and regulate mixed emotional experiences




This event is open to ALL!

C-Sweet Members Free. Non-Members - $25.
