EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Jay Shetty sits down with Dr. Julie Smith to talk about how we deal with our emotions. As a way to cope with difficult situations, we often attempt to block the negative emotions. We tend to shut ourselves down without realizing that blocking negative emotions also means blocking any other emotion. We are built to feel positive and negative emotions everyday because that’s what makes us human. Dr. Smith is a Clinical Psychologist, online educator, blogger, and owner of a private practice in Hampshire, England. She has devoted her career to learning everything she can about adult mental health and the intricacies of the human mind. She made it her mission to help as many people as she can to thrive.
