What if the key to feeling more grounded, connected, and emotionally resilient wasn't about being perfect or calm—but about being prepared?

In this powerful episode of the Emotional Longevity Podcast, Dr. Elisha Goldstein sits down with Dr. Emily Anhalt, clinical psychologist, founder of Coa, and author of "Flex Your Feelings," to explore what it really takes to ride the edge of emotional discomfort without shutting down or checking out.

From breaking an emotional sweat to navigating modern challenges like AI companions and digital communication, Emily reveals the research-backed framework that transforms how we approach mental health, treating it more like going to the gym and less like going to the doctor.
