Have you ever felt like you're constantly walking on eggshells around others, trying to predict their moods? Today's episode explores emotional monitoring, the tendency to hyper-focus on deciphering the emotions of those around you. It might sound harmless, but this behavior can be a major drain on your well-being. If you’re ready to break-free from the emotional rollercoaster and embrace more fulfilling relationships, this episode is for you! 


In this episode we discuss 

  • The difference between emotional monitoring and empathy 
  • Why emotional monitoring backfires and causes more harm than good 
  • Tips to help you overcome emotional monitoring
