TERRI COLE
About this episode

I am obsessed with emotional intelligence. It is something I have always done naturally without knowing what it was called.

Emotional intelligence, or EQ, measures your capacity to understand, perceive, and manage emotions, your own and other people's. 

While IQ measures cognitive and logical ability, EQ measures your capacity for interpersonal success. Higher emotional intelligence is linked to better stress management, more satisfying relationships, and greater leadership potential at work. 

The eight traits in this episode are how higher EQ shows up in real life, and they are all skills you can practice to raise yours at any age.
