#001: Emotional Vulnerability 101

Mental Pod

How often do we avoid emotions and leave them unacknowledged? It's sometimes hard for some people to manage the skill of 'Emotional Literacy' (the ability to define how you really feel using the correct emotional terminology). In addition, there are stereotypes which are still alive nowadays that insults the emotional aspect of men's lives where it includes a response of how they should cope with their emotions such as 'Don't cry and man up' as they shouldn't reveal any emotions of themselves which would be a complete BS. In this episode, Fady goes through the concept of emotional vulnerability and how individuals should keep in check with their emotions as Fady believes it is a healthy habit for the sake of one's overall wellbeing.
