Navigating Tears at Work: A Guide to Emotional Resilience
Jennifer Zach
Founder of Zach Coaching, LLC and Author of Somatic Awareness: Leading with Body Intelligence
In 1990, I was a young professional in my first office job. Fresh off the farm and out of college, proud to earn my own paycheck, and excited to meet new people and learn new things. But there was one challenge I hadn’t anticipated: a female co-worker, several decades older than me, who seemed to like working her stuff out on me. Getting me to cry felt like her sport. I choked back a river of tears, wondering why I couldn’t be stronger.
Every time I hear a client or friend express dread about crying at work, I reflect on those early days and share what I’ve learned over the years. Crying isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a powerful tool for emotional regulation, and understanding it can help us navigate life’s toughest moments.
