How to be emotionally intelligent

Today, we’re diving into emotional intelligence—what it really is, how to regulate emotions under stress, and how to use emotions to strengthen relationships. This episode is influenced by Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Daniel Goleman’s work on emotional intelligence, and Sue Johnson’s approach to attachment and relationships. If you’ve ever struggled with emotional control, reacted in ways you regret, or felt disconnected from the people you care about, this one’s for you.
