The most important aspects of a conversation are the emotions and feelings communicated. In order for a conversation to be effective, the participants need to have an understanding of their emotions and feelings. Moreover, understanding how we “feel” about our feelings also plays a significant role in shaping our thoughts & behavior and helps us connect better with others.

In this episode, we discuss how to manage meta-emotions in a conversation, emotional manipulation in conversations, how to control your emotions during a difficult conversation, and explore the idea of consuming other people’s emotions. Further, we address the differences between feelings and behaviors, and understanding the differences between feelings and behaviors helps us manage our emotional well-being more effectively.
