Hurt Feelings with Steven Hsieh

Whether we like it or not, the fight-or-flight response is coded in our genetics and not all of us are well-equipped to deal with these anxiety-induced feelings.

We'll explore dark spirals of negative thoughts due to (not so constructive) design critiques, seeking professional help from workplace assistance programs and finding new behavioural tools to deal with the ups and downs of work and life.
