Today, we’re diving into something that’s often invisible but incredibly draining: emotional monitoring. After our episode on Emotional Immaturity, a thoughtful question from a client opened the door to this conversation.

Emotional monitoring might feel like being highly attuned, sensitive, or just “good with people.” But beneath that surface is a survival strategy—one that often stems from early experiences and can quietly run your emotional life. In this episode, we unpack what emotional monitoring really is, how to recognize it, and why it can leave you feeling burnt out, resentful, and disconnected from your own needs.

If you’ve ever felt like you're always reading the room, managing others’ emotions, or anticipating how people feel—this one’s for you.
