Emotions are contagious - both positive and negative - whether we like it or not.  Listen as Casey and Tim break down the mechanisms of emotional contagion and discuss how to prevent it.

Opening quote:
“Repeatedly catching negative emotions from the people in our lives can create a miasma—preventing us from seeing the contagion or its cause. Instead, we sense we’re in an unhealthy environment. And in worst-case scenarios, emotional contagion leads to harmful actions.”  -Carlin Flora (Article referenced: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/articles/201906/protect-yourself-emotional-contagion)
