Grab a large cup ☕, today’s coffee break is a bit longer!
On the way home from a recent breakfast, Ashley witnessed a car accident. It got her thinking about psychological research about how we respond to different stressful situations and decisions in our lives.
In this coffee break, we break down the role fear plays in our decision making. We cover the how the bystander effect can lead us to seek solutions that minimize worry or fear of being judged. We also address how fear of judgment can dictate our choices in life.
🎧Listen to the end, Ashley shares three tactics we can use to challenge these fears.
