Emotional Debt: Chase Hughes on the Hidden Cost of Unfelt Feelings
In this solo lecture, behavioral scientist and human behavior expert Chase Hughes introduces the concept of 'emotional debt' — a neuroscience-backed framework explaining how unprocessed emotions don't disappear but compound in the nervous system like interest on a loan. Drawing on biology (amygdala hypersensitization, the HPA axis, prefrontal cortex degradation), somatic science, and psychology, Hughes argues that what we call 'personality' is often just a collection of unpaid emotional invoices from childhood. He outlines five steps to process emotional debt: see the payments, name your debt-servicing behavior, let the body finish incomplete responses, stop taking on new debt, and get a witness — all united by a single active ingredient: perspective shift.
