You Were Never Really Asked How You Felt
You were praised for being easy.
Low-maintenance.
Mature for your age.
Good at “not needing much.”
But inside, you learned to minimize your needs.
To stay quiet about your feelings.
To only show emotions that kept the peace.
And now, as an adult, you may struggle to:
- Identify what you’re feeling
- Express your needs without guilt
- Trust that your emotions matter
- Stay connected to your body in moments of vulnerability
This is what it looks like to live with the long echo of emotional neglect.
And your nervous system is still carrying it.
Emotional Neglect Is Not Just What Happened—It’s What Didn’t
Many women of color grew up in homes that were physically provided for but emotionally barren.
Your caregivers may have loved you deeply, but didn’t know how to hold space for your inner world. So you learned to:
- Dismiss your emotions as “dramatic” or “too much”
- Be the peacemaker or caretaker
- Disconnect from your body when feelings got overwhelming
- Perform stability—even when you were hurting
And that pattern didn’t stay in childhood.
It followed you into friendships, relationships, workplaces—shaping a nervous system that learned to mute, minimize, or disappear.
But What You Feel Matters—And Your Body Remembers
Emotional neglect teaches you to mistrust your body.
To downplay your emotional truth.
To survive by suppressing sensation and staying small.
But you were never meant to live from the neck up.
Your body is not a burden—it’s your bridge back to yourself.
And it’s never too late to rebuild that bridge.
That’s exactly what Sovereign System™ is here to help you do.
