The Emotional Bystander Effect

from I Stand Corrected Hosted by Lisa Kone

Have you ever seen someone hurting and felt frozen—even though you wanted to help? That moment of hesitation isn't apathy. It's emotional. In this episode, I break down the emotional bystander effect...the fear, anxiety, guilt, and overwhelming feeling that stop us from stepping in when someone needs support. This episode is for anyone who's ever said, "I should've done something." Awareness is the first step. Courage is the next.
