Podcasts about Emotional intelligence

Drive Time Debrief – Episode 209 Emotional Intelligence Series: Motivation, Burnout, and the Physician Motivation Trap In this episode of Drive Time Debrief, we continue our emotional intelligence series by exploring motivation—and why many high-achieving physicians feel stuck, depleted, or disconnected even after achieving their professional goals. Motivation isn't just about discipline or willpower. In medicine, physicians are often trained to rely on external motivators like grades, productivity, and achievement. Over time, however, these pressures can drain energy and contribute to burnout, demoralization, and nervous system shutdown. Using insights from emotional intelligence and polyvagal theory, we discuss how chronic stress can impact motivation and why a loss of motivation is often a signal that your nervous system needs support—not criticism. We also share practical ways to begin rebuilding motivation by reconnecting with personal values, energy, and choice. In This Episode We Discuss • Why motivation is about energy, not discipline • The physician motivation trap created by external pressure • Burnout vs. demoralization in medicine • How the nervous system affects motivation and engagement • Why loss of choice can shut down motivation • Simple ways to begin restoring energy and alignment Reflection Question What currently gives you energy, and what is quietly draining it?

Send a textFree MasterclassArtificial intelligence is advancing faster than most people ever expected.But the real question may not be whether machines become smarter.The real question is this:Are humans and especially our world leaders - humane enough to guide the intelligence we are creating?In this episode, we explore the deeper issue behind many of the challenges facing the world today. As AI accelerates and global systems shift, the real challenge may not be technology itself - but the level of human intelligence guiding it.Many people today feel overwhelmed by uncertainty, complexity, and constant change. We are more informed than ever before, yet many of us feel increasingly disconnected, reactive, and trapped in overthinking.Why?Because for generations we have been trained to rely primarily on cognitive intelligence - the ability to analyse, process information, and think logically.But in a world where AI can process information faster than any human ever could, cognition alone is no longer enough.This episode introduces the idea of Human Intelligence - a holistic form of intelligence that integrates:• Nervous system intelligence• Emotional intelligence• Intuitive intelligence• Cognitive intelligenceWhen these forms of intelligence work together, we are able to move beyond survival-based thinking and begin making decisions that create long-term value, wiser leadership, and more humane systems.We also explore a deeper personal insight: that much of what we chase in life - success, recognition, achievement - may actually be a search for something far more fundamental.The desire to exist, to matter, and to experience being truly alive.In a world shaped by artificial intelligence, the future may not belong to those who simply think faster - but to those who develop the deeper intelligence required to guide humanity forward.In this episode you'll learn:Why cognitive intelligence alone is no longer enough in the age of AIHow nervous system regulation affects decision-making and leadershipWhy many intelligent people feel overwhelmed or stuck todayThe four forms of intelligence that create Human IntelligenceHow developing human intelligence can help you navigate uncertainty and make wiser long-term decisions

Why beliefs can either cap our potential or push us toward possibility.What you believe about yourself could be holding you back. Fortunately, Nir Eyal says beliefs aren't truths — and you can choose new ones.Eyal is a former lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Stanford d.school, a celebrated author, and a renowned expert on human behavior and potential. His latest book, Beyond Belief, reveals how limiting beliefs — like “I'm a bad communicator” — quietly shape what we see, feel, and do. “A belief doesn't have to be true” to limit our potential, he says. But the same holds in reverse: a belief doesn't have to be true to expand who and what we can become. “Beliefs are tools, not truths. It just has to be useful.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Eyal and host Matt Abrahams explore how to identify the beliefs that hold us back — and how to replace them with ones that propel us forward. From keeping a belief journal to practicing perspective-shifting “turnarounds,” Eyal offers practical tips for rewriting the stories we tell ourselves and becoming the people we want to be.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Nir EyalNir's Book: Beyond Belief104.

In this episode of Anything But Average, Brittany and Christina dive into a very real conversation about health, healing, and the wake-up calls our bodies sometimes give us. Brittany shares the unexpected experience of landing in the hospital for an emergency appendectomy, walking through the symptoms, the fast-moving hospital visit, surgery, and what recovery has actually looked like in the days following. From the anxiety of not knowing what was happening to realizing how incredible the human body truly is, this experience became a powerful reminder about paying attention to the signals our bodies send. Christina also opens up about her own health journey right now, including ongoing back issues, exploring peptides, and the work required to maintain strength, mobility, and resilience. Together they unpack: • What happens when your body forces you to slow down • The importance of acting quickly when something feels off • Recovery, patience, and giving your body the time it needs • Exploring new tools and therapies that support healing • Why health awareness and self-care should never be optional   This conversation is honest, reflective, and a reminder that even the strongest, most driven people still need to listen to their bodies. Sometimes the biggest lesson is simply this: health is everything.

Ever wish you could shift your whole mood in the time it takes to breathe twice? We share a simple, one‑minute practice designed for those edge moments—right after waking, before bed, ahead of meditation, or just before stepping into a tough conversation—when the mind spirals and the body tightens. Rather than force change, we start by noticing what's true: the climate of your thoughts, the texture of your breath, the tone of your body. That honest check‑in reduces reactivity and sets the stage for a kinder state.From there, we guide you to soften the breath, unhook from worried thinking, and orient to safety by remembering protections close at hand—friends, mentors, loving faces, the room you're in. This opens enough space to recognize a powerful fact: you're okay right now. With that foothold, we pivot into gratitude and contentment, calling up one or two things that spark real warmth. The shift isn't theoretical; it's felt as your shoulders drop and your chest eases.We then invite love into the mix. Bring to mind someone—or a pet—you care about, sense their appreciation for you, and notice your own warmth moving out to meet them. Finally, we weave peace, contentment, and love into one steady state, a homecoming you can carry. Two deeper breaths help these qualities sink in so you can walk through your day with a responsive mind instead of a reactive one. If you're ready to reclaim a minute and make it meaningful, press play, try the practice, and tell us how it changed the next hour.

In this week's episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I speak with Vanessa Druskat, a globally recognized expert in team performance and author of "The Emotionally Intelligent Team." Vanessa shares the inspiration behind her research, highlighting the gap between anecdotal advice and evidence-based practices for building successful teams. She discusses the importance of cultivating esprit de corps—meaning a sense of belonging, value, and psychological safety—within teams, and emphasizes that this must come from both leaders and team members.Our conversation explores practical norms and routines that emotionally intelligent teams use, dispelling myths around individual emotional intelligence versus collective TeamEI. Vanessa provides actionable examples, such as brief check-ins, team charters, and structured feedback mechanisms, underscoring the need for leaders to be intentional, especially in remote or hybrid environments. Questions from the live audience explored topics such as the role of team charters, overcoming ineffective norms, and the courage required to embrace feedback and conflict constructively. The episode is packed with research-backed insights and practical strategies to help leaders create high-performing, emotionally intelligent teams.What You'll Learn- Great teams do things differently… and intentionally.- The importance of assessing your team's norms (anonymous surveys work wonders!).- Develop a charter and revisit it regularly.- Make feedback part of your culture rather than a once-a-year event- How to lead remote/hybrid teams effectively.- Why you want to finish meetings with a Plus/Delta.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) – Welcome to the Podcast(10:25) - Defining Team Emotional Intelligence vs Individual EQ(19:56) - Common Team Norms: Good, Bad, and Misunderstood(24:32) - Creating and Using Team Charters(27:12) - Activities to Build Understanding and Belonging(32:11) - Best Practices for Team Assessment(36:54) - Feedback and Accountability in Emotionally Intelligent Teams(41:20) - Constructive Conflict and Avoiding Sidebar Conversations(49:33) - Emotional Intelligence in Remote and Hybrid Teams(54:33) - Final ReflectionsKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, Team Emotional Intelligence, Team Norms, Self-awareness, Psychological Safety, Feedback Culture, Team Rituals, Team-Building, High-Performing Teams, Team Assessment, Team Charter, Remote Teams, Hybrid Teams, Collaboration, Accountability, Sense of Belonging, Respect, Onboarding, Team Effectiveness, CEO Success

Practical insights to help you communicate with more intention in everyday moments.What's the difference between reacting and responding? How do you move from memorizing your words to truly conversing in the moment? And how do you keep growing as a communicator in everyday moments?Communication isn't about having the perfect script. It's about staying present enough to respond with intention. In fast-moving conversations, emotions rise, thoughts race, and structure can disappear. Yet it's in the pause — the breath before we speak — that clarity begins.In this Ask Matt Anything episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Matt Abrahams shares highlights from a recent live AMA inside the Think Fast, Talk Smart Learning Community. Listener questions open the door to practical strategies for navigating emotional conversations, relying on structure rather than memorization, and building communication habits that actually stick. Because becoming a better communicator isn't about getting it perfect — it's about making small, intentional choices every day.Episode Reference Links:Think Fast Talk Smart Learning Community  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:31) - From Reacting to Responding (04:25) - Memorization vs. Spontaneous Speaking (09:35) - Growing Vocabulary (13:34) - Asking for Better Feedback (17:28) - Value of the Learning Community (21:51) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

Ever caught yourself thinking, “I shouldn't react like that”… and then reacting exactly like that anyway? You're not alone. In Part 2 of our emotional intelligence series, we're diving into self-regulation — the skill that helps you stay grounded when emotions run high and pressure is constant. For physicians trained to push through stress and “keep it together,” learning to regulate instead of suppress can be a game-changer. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why suppression isn't the same as regulation ✨ How chronic activation shows up in physicians' lives ✨ Simple tools to reset your nervous system in real time ✨ How to pause, recover faster, and show up more intentionally Self-regulation isn't about being calm all the time — it's about choosing your response and recovering with intention. Your nervous system deserves the same care you give your patients. Take a breath. Reset. You've got this. Until next time: You are whole. You are a gift to medicine. And the work you do matters.

This raw conversation explores addiction recovery, the pandemic's impact, finding fulfillment beyond money, and how adversity reveals who we truly are.

Why is emotional intelligence no longer optional for leaders facing change and challenging conversations? Amy Jacobson joins Kevin to discuss what emotional intelligence really is and why it matters more than ever. They explore emotional intelligence as a skill, not an identity, emphasizing that EQ shows up in the how and why behind our decisions and behaviors. Amy shares a common misconception about emotional intelligence, clarifying that it isn't about avoiding conflict, being agreeable, or maintaining constant positivity, but about understanding emotions, regulating responses, and choosing actions that move people and outcomes forward. Amy also introduces relatable metaphors, such as treating change as if it were "your baby," to explain why leaders often overlook the emotional experience of those affected by change. Amy's Story: Amy Jacobson is the author of Emotional Intelligence: A Simple and Actionable Guide to Increasing Performance, Engagement and Ownership and her new book The Emotional Intelligence Advantage: Mastering Change and Difficult Conversations. She is an emotional intelligence and human behavior specialist. Previously featured in Fast Company, The Daily Telegraph, News.com.au and more, Jacobson trains corporations, companies and groups large and small in both private and public sectors about the importance of emotional intelligence. She uses simple, actionable strategies—and a bit of tough love where needed—to help leaders and employees understand that no matter what industry you are part of, our biggest challenges are always the same. When she's not working, Jacobson enjoys musicals, basketball, traveling and dining out. She and her husband, Mark, share two teenage children. This Episode is brought to you by...

In this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating world of neurocardiology with Jeff Goelitz, Director of Education at the HeartMath Institute. For over 35 years, HeartMath has been at the forefront of researching the "heart-brain" connection, proving that the heart is far more than just a mechanical pump. Jeff explains the revolutionary concept of "coherence"—a state of physiological balance where the heart, brain, and nervous system work in harmony to reduce stress and improve mental clarity. We explore the practical applications of HeartMath techniques for high-stress professions, including first responders, professional athletes, and the military. Jeff shares insights into how "heart rate variability" (HRV) serves as a key measure of our resilience and how simple breathing techniques can help us reset our nervous systems after trauma or daily stress. Whether you are a parent, an educator, or someone looking to manage anxiety, this episode provides the scientific foundation and actionable tools to tap into your heart's intelligence. Key Takeaways: ·         Beyond the Pump: Understand why the heart is now classified as an endocrine gland and a sensory organ with its own "brain" of 40,000 neurons. ·         The Power of Coherence: Learn how a state of heart coherence facilitates better decision-making and "cortical facilitation" in the brain. ·         Resilience for First Responders: Discover how HeartMath is being used to help firefighters and soldiers manage PTSD and maintain a "baseline of calm" in dangerous situations. ·         Measuring Inner Balance: An overview of HRV technology and how biofeedback sensors like the "Inner Balance" help track emotional stability. ·         The Heart-Brain Dialogue: Why the heart sends more neural traffic to the brain than the brain sends to the heart. About Jeff Goelitz   Jeff Goelitz has gained vast knowledge, experience and understanding of behavior and social and emotional learning in the many years he has been with HMI. His 35 years of experience, including five as a private school teacher, have helped him become a leader in the development of stress management and education solutions for children and adults.

Did you know that happy people are less judgmental? Nobody likes being judged… and for the judgmental ones, it doesn't feel good either. We've all been judgy, and the truth is, being overly critical of others is often linked to insecurity, anxiety, perfectionism, and unhappiness. Subscribe to my new Substack! In this week's quickie, we're unpacking the psychology of judgment: where it comes from, why we do it, and how to become less judgmental in a world that fuels comparison and criticism about everything from how we parent, to how we look, to how we earn and spend our money. Judgment usually says more about our own wounds than someone else's behaviour. So we're exploring the psychological drivers behind judging, and psychology-backed tools to shift into a more curious, understanding, and compassionate mindset. Tune in to hear: Why the ego needs to feel “right” The link between perfectionism and criticism How insecurity and comparison fuels judgment The connection between self-judgment and judging others Understanding the Fundamental Attribution Error The blind spots I've had to confront in my own judgments Using curiosity as the antidote to judgment Challenging your assumptions and biases Practicing self-compassion to reduce projection   For advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

In a world of constant change and advances in technology, Artificial Intelligence is also raising the bar on Emotional Intelligence. Jason Barger explains. Jason explores the critical intersection of high-tech and high-touch, explaining why the rise of Artificial Intelligence makes human Emotional Intelligence more valuable than ever before. Please rate and review the podcast to help amplify these messages to others! Summary: As we move toward a future where AI handles our data, our schedules, and even our strategic analysis, what remains for the human leader? In this episode of The Thermostat, Jason V Barger deconstructs the "AI" of Authentic Interaction. He argues that rather than making leaders obsolete, technology is actually raising the bar for corporate culture and leadership in teams. Drawing from recent Forbes predictions for 2030 and current workforce trends, Jason identifies why the "scarcity premium" of the next decade will be placed on empathy, transparency, and genuine human connection. This conversation moves beyond the "scary" or "exciting" headlines of automation to address the core mechanics of how elite leaders build high-trust ecosystems. Essential listening for C-Suite executives and managers navigating the technological tide, this episode offers a strategic framework for doubling down on the traits that AI cannot duplicate: vulnerability, motive transparency, and authentic purpose. Episode Notes & Timestamps: [00:00] Intro: Jason welcomes listeners to Season 10, reflecting on over 300 episodes dedicated to calibrating the leadership thermostat. [00:03] The AI Paradox: Why artificial intelligence is the most discussed topic in boardrooms today and the spectrum of fear and excitement surrounding it. [00:06] Predictions for 2030: A breakdown of the Forbes forecast—from AI therapists and accountants to the normalization of humanoid robots in the workplace. [00:08] The Authentic Interaction (AI) Framework: Jason introduces his thesis: The more advanced technology becomes, the more humans crave authentic interaction. [00:09] Authenticity as a Trust Driver: Revisiting the three pillars of trust (Authenticity, Logic, and Empathy) and why showing up genuinely is now a competitive advantage. [00:10] Pillar 1: Genuineness: The importance of leaders admitting imperfections and sharing their vision to attract and retain top talent. [00:11] Pillar 2: Transparency: How proactive sharing of information and motives prevents the "manipulation" trap and drives engagement. [00:12] Pillar 3: Connection: Addressing the fundamental human need to belong to a mission greater than oneself, which no algorithm can satisfy. [00:13] Closing Questions: Jason leaves leaders with a challenge to evaluate how they are valuing the human experience in a technological age. Key Takeaways for Leaders: The Scarcity Premium: Recognize that as tasks become automated, human-centric leadership traits (EQ) become your most valuable assets. Motive Transparency: Build trust by being radically transparent about the "why" behind strategic shifts and technological adoption. Culture as an Ecosystem: Focus on building a "Human-First" culture that uses technology to enhance, not replace, human connection.

" In order to create that trust, you have to be honest enough to know that you're not the right person for everybody.

Emotional intelligence changed leadership. But it's no longer enough.In this episode of Teamwork: A Better Way, Christoffel Sneijders—creator of 3 Brains Intelligence and expert in human behavior—reveals why most leadership breakdowns aren't strategy problems… they're alignment problems .Every leader operates from three decision-making centers: 

Feeling busy yet strangely stuck? We pull together a month of conversations to reveal a clearer path: lead with conscious influence, not control. Across three standout themes—self-leadership, emotional fitness, and meeting design—we show how small, intentional choices create outsized cultural ripple effects.We start by reframing where leadership lives: not in titles or dashboards, but in behavior and micro moments. Tracy Clark's lens on self-awareness challenges us to look for where we unintentionally bottleneck our teams by over controlling or rushing to certainty. The move is from hero to catalyst—asking better questions, creating space for others to step up, and letting curiosity replace the need to be right. You'll hear practical reflection prompts and a simple weekly action to step back once and watch ownership grow.Next, we add emotional depth with Melinda McCormack. People do not leave their lives at the door, and disengagement rarely happens overnight. We practice the intentional pause: notice, name, and ask why this emotion, why now, then choose a values-aligned response. Treat emotions as data that point to met or unmet needs—belonging, respect, significance. This is how leaders create psychological safety, regulate under pressure, and earn trust that compounds over time.Finally, Rebecca Hinds equips us to reclaim our calendars. Meetings aren't bad; they're badly designed. We challenge visibility bias, clarify purpose, and treat meetings like a product with users, outcomes, and constraints. You'll learn how to run a calendar reset, redesign who's in the room, set tighter timeboxes, and use small structural tweaks—like 3:05 starts—to protect energy. One better meeting can reset a team's focus and signal what your culture truly values.We close with an integrated challenge: lead one moment with self-awareness, handle one situation with empathy and emotional regulation, and redesign one meeting to be more intentional.

Summary: I'm currently taking an improv class, and it has highlighted a major leadership blind spot: the leftover vibe. In improv, if you carry the "stiffness" of a bad day onto the stage, the scene fails. Leadership is no different. We play many roles—the efficient delegator, the empathetic coach, the bold visionary. These aren't masks; they are authentic "costumes" we wear to meet the moment. But if you don't "shake out" the energy of a budget crisis before walking into a sensitive one-on-one, your team feels that residue. This episode is about the power of the 30-second transition and why your energy speaks louder than your words. Takeaways Energy is Pre-Planned: Just like an improviser chooses a vibration for a scene, you can consciously choose the energy you bring into a room. The Hazard of Residue: Carrying stress from one meeting to the next isn't just a personal burden; it's a "vibe-killer" for your team that prevents real connection. Costumes vs. Masks: Adapting your energy for different leadership roles is an act of respect and intentionality, not a lack of authenticity. The 30-Second Reset: Before your next call, literally "shake it out." Take half a minute to shed the previous meeting so you can show up fully for the person in front of you.

How do you improve emotional intelligence when you were never really taught what to do with your feelings in the first place? Emotional intelligence shapes your happiness, your relationships, your leadership, and your ability to manage stress — yet most people were never shown how to build emotional intelligence skills in a practical way. In this episode of Love, Happiness and Success, we're talking about exactly how to improve emotional intelligence step by step, and how to develop emotional intelligence skills that create real change. Not as a personality trait you either have or don't, but as a set of learnable skills that directly impact emotional regulation, self-awareness, career success, and the quality of your relationships. You'll learn why emotional intelligence often matters more than technical expertise at work. In fact, emotional intelligence at work is one of the strongest predictors of long-term career success and leadership effectiveness. We'll explore how strengthening emotional vocabulary changes the way you think and feel, why managing your internal reactions is the foundation for stronger communication, and how emotional intelligence supports resilience under stress. Together, we'll walk through the four core components of emotional intelligence — self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management — and what it actually looks like to strengthen each one in real life. If you've ever felt reactive, shut down, emotionally overwhelmed, or unsure how to handle difficult conversations, this episode will help you slow down, get clearer, and show up differently. Emotional intelligence isn't about being more emotional. It's about understanding your emotions, regulating them wisely, and creating emotional safety in the relationships that matter most.

This week, Christina and Brittany are having one of those honest, unfiltered conversations. The kind where you talk about what's actually happening in your body… how aging really feels… and why health can't sit at the bottom of the priority list anymore. They dive into inflammation and how it quietly impacts everything from energy to long-term disease, the growing conversation around peptides and recovery, and the reality of navigating wellness in a world where “nothing feels real anymore.” This episode is about taking your health seriously. About discipline. About gratitude. About choosing to live in a way that doesn't leave you with regret. If you're building a life, a career, a family — none of it works if your health falls apart. This is real talk on movement, mindset, nutrition, recovery, and what it means to age with intention. We don't shy away from the skepticism. We don't pretend we have it all figured out. But we do believe this: Health is non-negotiable. About Brittany and Christina: Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.

Chaplain, coach, and author Dean Abbott joins me for a thought-provoking conversation about the difference between healthy introspection and unhealthy rumination. Dean challenges a popular argument that therapy simply encourages people to think about themselves too much, making the case instead that people don't ruminate for fun — they ruminate because they're in pain and searching for something they've lost.Together we explore what makes self-examination productive versus destructive, and Dean introduces a framework rooted in the Christian tradition that contrasts nihilistic rumination — where a person endlessly rehearses their pain with no resolution — with a more structured self-examination oriented toward growth, virtue, and wisdom. I get personal and share my own recent struggles with loneliness and the tension between being a generous host and not getting that energy back when I need it most. Dean walks me through what healthy self-examination would look like in that situation, pointing to the importance of recognizing our legitimate needs and having the courage and honesty to express them.We also dive into the lost concept of human formation, the role of moral education in therapy, why thousands of years of wisdom literature shouldn't be abandoned in the counseling room, and the difference between development and formation. This is a rich, honest, and deeply human conversation.Dean Abbott is a coach, chaplain and author living in the Midwest. He loves animals, music and baseball. His can be found at www.deanabbott.com.

Episode 3310: Kyle Benson explores how anger often acts as a protective surface emotion, masking deeper feelings like shame, fear, or exhaustion. Drawing on insights from leading psychologists, he explains how understanding the “anger iceberg” can help us respond with curiosity instead of defensiveness. By learning to sit with anger rather than suppress it, we can build healthier boundaries, stronger empathy, and more connected relationships.

In this Daily Shift, Celeste explores how real influence doesn't come from dominance — it comes from emotional intelligence. Regulation, awareness, and composure often carry more power than volume. This episode is a reminder that understanding the emotional climate without losing yourself in it is a form of leadership. Influence grows where regulation lives. Small shifts create big change.
