Emotional Algebra with Dr. E...

Dr. E...

How many times have you asked yourself, "Why in the heck did I do that?" Well, we'll help you answer that question, not just for yourself, but also looking at culture, society, politics, communities... through understanding the subtle and obvious calculations we all make everyday that involve emotions, attitudes, beliefs, triggers, and, well life. We discuss the functional and dysfunctional ways we look at power and the intersections between what Dr. E... calls Emotional Specificity, or the idea that every emotion has a singular purpose.

    The Real Reason We Don't Trust the Media Anymore (It's Not What You Think) | Dr. E...

    In this clip from Dr. E..., we break down why so many of us have lost trust in the news and it's not just about bias or facts. At the root of it all is fear, and fear has a sneaky way of disguising itself as logic, wisdom, and experience.We trace how mistrust in media has escalated over time: editorials blurred with facts, one news source questioning another, and an endless cycle of competing narratives that left people feeling confused and unmoored. The emotional piece is what most people miss entirely — many believe they're being purely logical, but no one operates outside of emotion. Fear and mistrust often masquerade as rational thought, and until we name that, we stay passengers on a bus that feels like it's heading somewhere we don't want to go.This is a conversation about media literacy, emotional awareness, and why understanding our own fear response might be the key to rebuilding trust in the news, and in each other.💬 Let us know your thoughts in the comments👍 Like this video if it gave you something to think about🔔 Watch the full episode here: [https://youtube.com/@ErikFisherakaDrE]Follow Dr. E... for more insights:📍Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/dr_e_presents]📍Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/share/1BkhUS8X4w/?mibextid=wwXIfr]📍LinkedIn: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctore]📍TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.epresents]📍Twitter/X: [https://x.com/dctre]📍Spotify Podcast:[https://open.spotify.com/show/3w9W0ZOwfwXkbxeFO5ChWG?si=apAiDAcwTxqhQl-xXWzAoA]#MentalHealth #EmotionalAlgebra #Vulnerability #TraumaRecovery #PoliceMentalHealth #Leadership #EmotionalIntelligence #Resilience #Healing #PersonalGrowth #Authenticity #HumanConnection #MentalHealthAwareness #DrE #MediaTrust #MediaLiteracy #FearAndMistrust #NewsBias #EmotionalIntelligence #CriticalThinking #Psychology #SocietyAndCulture #TrustInMedia #Podcast
