What Does it Mean to Be a Grumpy Gal?

It's not just about the mood, even though that mood is, well, everything.

Being a Grumpy Gal is about allowing yourself to feel however you feel, unapologetically. It's realizing that the highs also come with lows, but at the same time not allowing yourself to be judged- by others and more importantly, judged by yourself.

It's about having emotional IQ.

Many of us have it ingrained into us that we must appear a certain way in public, even when we don't feel that way. In some ways, yea fake it til you make it, social manners, etc, BUT......are you really being true to yourself? Is it serving you to push those emotions to the side all the time?

Radical thought: what if we all learned how to handle and deal with these emotions in the moment? What if we all learned how to recognize that in others and just offer a little extra kindness? If everyone is hiding their struggles, how can we help each other?

This is, ofc, different from taking out our bad mood on others, or, playing the victim 'woe is me' card. This is, in fact, the opposite kind of movement.

This is the kind that changes the way we interact on a daily basis. This is a lifestyle commitment, and a contract with your highest self. Some things may be out of our control, but a Grumpy Gal knows when it's time to take responsibility for their actions and doesn't blame it on the world. Our vibrational frequency has the power to align us with many different types of experiences on this plane, which is all under our control. Every Grumpy Gal knows this as well.

The grumpy in me sees the grumpy in you, and acknowledges that. Even your bad moods deserve a hug, as it is as much apart of you as any other.

Join the movement. Become a Grumpy Gal and raise the vibes with us. We may not be smiling, but we hope that you are.
