The past few weeks have brought on a lot of stress for many Americans. And with many cities throughout the country ordered to stay at home as much as possible, many have had to personally deal with the emotions surrounding the uncertainty of their futures. Living in a social vacuum can have a significant influence on how you decided to cope with negative emotions like fear. For that reason, it’s important to recognize when and how you might be strategically avoiding the emotions that you’re experiencing.

On this episode, I talk candidly about the 6 ways we might be suppressing our emotions, and possibly without even knowing it.
