About this listen

We live in an era of emotional pop-ups: constant alerts, quick reactions, and inboxes full of unread feelings.

In this episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt unpack why we take everything personally, how defensiveness hijacks empathy, and why emotional literacy is the health skill of the decade.

You’ll learn:
• Why the average emotion lasts 90 seconds (unless you hit “replay”).
• How to tell the difference between data and drama.
• What happens to your relationships when you stop treating feelings like verdicts.

Because your emotions aren’t trying to convict you, they’re trying to connect you.
