Second-Hand Anxiety is a very real thing...

Nova Podcasts
About this episode

Second hand anxiety refers to the way emotions spread, especially between people in close contact. Like, your partner comes home from the office feeling stressed… and suddenly you feel stressed! It all comes down to a thing called "mirror neurons" and we're going to teach you how to overcome these feelings without guilt or blame.
