My husband and I are dealing with infertility.
And one thing I’ve noticed is… people don’t really know how to sit with someone in pain.
And I get it.
Pain is uncomfortable.
Most of us were never taught what to say or how to show up.
So we try to fix it.
We try to make it positive.
We try to move past it as quickly as possible.
But what I’m learning is…
we actually have to get better at being uncomfortable.
Because real connection doesn’t happen when everything is easy.
It happens when someone is hurting and we choose to stay.
Here are five ways we can better show up for people in their pain:
1. Don’t fix it. Just acknowledge it.
“That sounds really hard.”
2. Reflect, don’t redirect.
“I hear how heavy this is for you.”
3. Name it instead of softening it.
“This really sucks.”
4. Stay. Even if you don’t know what to say.
“I’m here with you.”
5. Ask what they need.
“Do you want me to listen or help problem solve?”
It’s simple, but it’s not easy.
And I think if we got better at this,
a lot more people would feel seen, supported… and less
