COLOMBIA 

Jag pratar om hur man pratar om hur man mår på svenska och engelska, de språk jag kan. Jag undrar om det finns några språk där människor faktiskt säger hur de mår och inte bara svarar "Jag mår bra" Varför är det inte lika acceptabelt att svara "Jag mår dåligt eller jag mår inte så bra"?  Varför finns det inte fler känslospektrum när man talar om hur man mår borde bli större, våga säga, jag mår inte så bra för jag är nervös, jag är stressad så jag mår sådär, jag mår dåligt för jag har ont i ryggen OSV. 

Detta podcast-avsnitt är en uppmaning till er att VÅGA säga hur ni faktiskt mår när ni får frågan. Jag ska försöka göra detsamma, jag vet hur svårt det är. Det är så himla mycket enklare att säga "Jag mår bra..." än att faktiskt vara ärlig.

"When a woman relies on her looks and charm for financial plan, the toll it takes on her self esteem can leave a large scar."
