This coaching session between Emily and Zen focused on Zen's struggles with feelings of rejection and inadequacy, particularly in a community group where she felt overlooked and undervalued. Zen shared her experiences with a specific woman in the group who would consistently exclude her from leadership roles and ignore her messages, triggering feelings of not mattering. They discussed Zen's childhood coping mechanisms, including using laughter as a defense mechanism and mirroring others to gain acceptance. Emily guided Zen through a cognitive behavioral coaching exercise to help her take ownership of these feelings rather than letting them control her, introducing the concept of the "blue PYLON" as an anchoring technique to help Zen reframe and observe her emotions rather than being overwhelmed by them. The session concluded with discussions about Zen's journey toward self-empowerment and boundary-setting, particularly in how she's learned to observe her feelings without getting caught up in them.
