The emotions you avoid don’t disappear. They accumulate.
Dr. Marc Brackett is the Founder and Director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and one of the world’s leading experts on how emotions shape your decisions, relationships, and behavior.
Emotions don’t go away just because you ignore them. Dr. Brackett says they pile up like a debt.
And eventually, that debt comes due.
You pay that debt in the form of stress, perfectionism, control, shame, exhaustion… That’s why emotional intelligence isn’t about getting rid of your emotions. It’s about learning how to process them.
On this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast with Dr. Marc Brackett, you’ll learn how to regulate your emotions, stop suppressing what you feel, and build the emotional intelligence that changes your relationships, decisions, and entire life.
