Disappointment is a feeling we all experience. Whether it is being disappointed that your boss made you work late or if you were disappointed that the coffee shop was out of your favourite pastry. Sometimes, the disappointment is turned inward; you feel you could have done a better job, be more supportive, and “should” have more restraint when it comes to said pastry (when they are in stock)! We’ve all experienced disappointment, and as benign as it seems, it can sting for us high achievers. Want to explore disappointment with us? It might not seem like “fun” stuff, but we’ll try to make it so!
Quote of the Week:
Maybe we have to ask, “How is it serving you to be holding on to the disappointment?” Sarah McVanel

Disappointment Happens
In this heartfelt episode, Simonne and Sarah deconstruct the foundation of disappointment and how much we should let it affect us. Simonne covers a conversation about allowing disappointment to have its time and day. She speaks about how important it is for our well-being to process our disappointments and move on rather than letting the melancholic emotions take us over for unsubstantial amounts of time. For example, what feels better, finding out you didn’t get the promotion and letting the disappointment take over your every waking thought? Or, when you did not get said promotion, do you reflect on how you could do better in the future and how you will have a higher chance of succeeding, letting those feelings drive you to improve? It is very easy to let go of ourselves in times of disappointment and grieve a little, though you do not have to let it take over your life.
Moving Through Disappointment
We cannot add days to our lives, but we can add a life to our days. Forgiving yourself, others, situations, and even things beyond our control can be liberating (and essential!) Acknowledging disappointment and then moving through and beyond it is a form of taking care of yourself; it is crucial not to stay stuck or dissatisfied.
