This episode is one of those that talks about stuff you as a human do all the time but aren’t all that aware of or use different words to describe it. My guest this time is James Gross (https://spl.stanford.edu/james-gross-phd-0) who is the worlds leading researcher in Emotion Regulation. Through the podcast we chat about:
– What are emotions?
– What is emotion regulation?
– The 5 families of emotion regulation strategies
– Examples of what people do within each of those families
– How emotion regulation can be extrinsic (where others use these strategies with/for/to you to ‘help’ you regulate your emotions) and intrinsic (where you use them with your own emotions)
– What the workplace and individuals can learn from emotion regulation
This was a great episode to record!!!! My inner geek was super excited
