What Emotional Intelligence Really Means

In today’s episode, we’re diving into a concept that I believe a lot of people don’t truly understand, which is what ’emotional intelligence’ really means. Often we’re quick to ‘assign’ our emotions to other people, blaming them for how we’re feeling- but that isn’t really fair, or healthy.

Join me as we explore the difference between owning your emotions versus projecting them onto others- and how you can begin to take responsibility for what you’re feeling, even in the most difficult situations.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What being emotionally intelligent means, and what this actually looks like in real life
• The difference between explaining your emotions to someone versus placing your emotions on them
• Examples of different situations when speaking up to others may be required, versus when you need to turn inwards and change something about your own situation or the environment you find yourself in
• How to speak up and what to say when you need to communicate your emotions and needs to other people

Plus so much more. Let’s dive in, shall we?
