Emotional Intelligence, Explained Clearly - Part 2

What if one small shift could turn tense conversations into genuine understanding? We dive into emotional intelligence part two and move from the inside out—starting with self-awareness and landing on practical empathy you can use today at home, at work, and online.

We break down the difference between empathy and agreement, why limitless empathy leads to burnout, and how “listening to understand” changes the tone of any room. You’ll hear simple, repeatable tools: reflect what you heard, label the emotion you sense, and ask a curious follow-up that invites connection instead of defensiveness. We also get real about conflict—how to state needs clearly, repair after missteps with a sincere apology, and find common ground without caving on your values.

Workplace dynamics get a spotlight with strategies for reading the room, giving precise feedback, and managing stress so it doesn’t spread. Then we tackle the digital trap: doomscrolling, algorithm bait, and knowing when to disengage. If the news is vital, it will reach you—so set guardrails and protect your emotional bandwidth. To help you build durable habits, we share daily reps that compound: one emotional check-in, one mindful pause before responding, and one empathetic question in every conversation. For deeper study, we point to Daniel Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence and the GLAD practice—gratitude, learned, accomplishment, delight—to train attention toward balance.

If you want fewer blowups, better mornings, and calmer meetings, this one gives you clear steps to start right away. Listen, try the daily reps, and tell us what changed first. If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review so more people can find these tools.

Winner Of The Week: Tinsel The Cat

SPEAKER_02 6:02

All righty. This, let me see where this is. I see a kitty cat in the Vermont. Four years after losing a beloved cat named Tinsel, a stroke of fortune found her reunited with owner Maggie DeGrenia, whose cousins saw her on a local shelter's website. Tinsel disappeared in December 2021, leading to weeks of searching, posting on Facebook groups, contacting shelters, and putting up missing posters. My goodness, how long did this take? Well, it was 2021, December of 2021 is when the cat went missing. And this is just a recent story. Holy shnikes! This is great. Go on. But despite all her efforts, Degrenia eventually had to accept her beloved pet was gone. The 27-year-old Vermonter had lived with Tinsel since 2017 when she adopted her at a Lunenberg shelter four years later. I'm sorry, at a Lunenberg shelter. Four years later, Tinsel accidentally got let out of Degrenia's house and vanished. That's when she went missing. Okay. We called local shelters for weeks, searched for her by car and by foot, said Degrenia, who admitted she eventually gave up and merely hoped her baby would find a new loving home. Then one day, Degrenia received a text from her cousin saying she had seen Tinsel with her instantly recognizable mustache on a local shelter page. She texted me, hey, important. I think I found Tinsel, she told SWNS. I was in disbelief when I saw the photo and immediately broke down in tears. I called the shelter, Riverside Rescue, as fast as I could, still in tears, as I told them our story. Tinsel immediately recognized me during the shelter reunion, pressing her forehead against Maggie's in a touching display of affection that she said was the most incredible feeling. According to the shelter, Tinsel had been picked up by people who looked after her until December and then surrendered her back to the shelter. Wow. You guys want to see a picture of Tinsel? Yeah, please. Come on.

SPEAKER_00 8:12

I'm a cat, Dad. Oh, look at that. Look at the mustache. I see it. Oh, wait. No. No, no, other way. That way. There. You had it. There you go. Sorry, there's a delay in video.

SPEAKER_02 8:25

Tinsel. Tinsel. Tinsel's back home. That's great. With her mother. Look at those whiskers.

SPEAKER_00 8:31

How long those are. I just want to play with those whiskers. Yeah, you can look at them out. Yeah. She's adorable. She's yeah, she is a very pretty cat. I mean, I guess you know that cat if you saw it. Oh, absolutely. It's very distinctive. You want to hear something funny? Yeah. My parents in Virginia, they actually have two cats. Uh-huh. And one of the cats' names is Tinsel. Tinsel.

SPEAKER_02 8:51

Really? That's funny. I've never heard I I mean, I guess I'm sure that's not probably a common name. No, they got them. They they got them uh right before Christmas. Right.

SPEAKER_00 9:02

So that's where tinsel comes from.

SPEAKER_02 9:05

Definitely. Winner of the week. Winner of the week for sure.

SPEAKER_06 9:17

That's how winning is done. All righty.

SPEAKER_02 9:21

So back to it. Yeah. So we're talking today about emotional intelligence. As I mentioned in the intro, this is part two. Stick around, even if you didn't listen to part one, you can go back and catch up. All the info's there. So we talked about really what emotional intelligence is. We talked about self-awareness, knowing what you're feeling, self-regulation, self-regulation. We talked about responding instead of reacting. So here's where we're going to go into the external part of it. Up till now, it's about analyzing ourselves, our own feelings, being aware. Now we're going to go into empathy, understanding others.

SPEAKER_00 10:01

May I interject here for a quick second? Yes. We talked about techniques to help one emotionally regulate and you know think. And there's a technique that I actually read about this morning. It was shared during our work. Yeah, you mentioned that right in the beginning. And it's a technique that you do for 30 days in a row. And it's called the GLAD technique. And it's an acronym, so G-L A D. Yeah and GLAD and G and really stands for gratitude. What are you, what are you grateful for? What are you grateful for? Right. You know, you have to think about that. And then the L is what did what so what is something new that you learned? Right? The A is what is an accomplishment that you've had, and then think about that. And then the D is what delights you? So if you think about those four things every day for 30 days, you will end up being able to self-reflect just a tad bit more as a technique of your emotional intelligence. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_02 11:01

And that's a great one to look at. And and I I'll I will put that in the show notes as well. Okay. The glad technique. Yes, please. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:08

It's sure. It's just one of those things that I saw this morning. I'm actually, it's so funny that you're doing emotional intelligence EI on the show today, because just not next, not this week, not next week, the week after. I'm doing a speech about emotional intelligence. So you are spot on with your timing. I'll just hand you my notes. You can choose them. Well, thanks for writing it, man. No, honestly, it's just this is such an important topic, and we talk about it all the time, but putting it into practice is where it has is where it starts. Yep. So what we're going to be going over next, you said was the empathetic part of it.

SPEAKER_02 11:42

Going outside of yourself with emotional intelligence. Go for it. And again, really, the purpose of that is just kind of to shift that internal awareness to external awareness, which is part of the whole thing. To be emotionally intelligent, you have to have your own individual intelligence, but also intelligence of how to deal with other people. Yeah. You have to be you got to be a Troy from a Star Trek. So definitely there's some key distinctions between some terms. Yes. There's definitely some distinction between empathy and sympathy. Those are not the same things. Oh, absolutely not. Yeah. Empathy also does not mean you agree. Oh no. You couldn't that's the other because people feel like if you're empathetic, you agree with the person and what they're going through or what or decision they make.

SPEAKER_00 12:27

I understand your your opinion.

SPEAKER_02 12:28

I don't agree with it, but I understand it. Yes. And the other one is empathy without boundaries or limits leads to burnout. Oh, yeah. Because and and I and I've used this analogy so many times. You you can give and give and give. Eventually, you're gonna run out, and then you have nothing for yourself. Or or even just moderation, or even again, taking that time for yourself. I I I again I'm full of idioms and analogies in these episodes, but it's it's that old the old saying, you know, if you lose pressure in a plane, you put your mask on first. If you don't put your mask on first, you can't help anyone else. Right. That's why you put yours on first before the children. Absolutely. Yep. So, what are some practical empathy skills that that you can kind of implement when you're dealing with other people?

SPEAKER_00 13:23

That's a really good question. I'm sure that was a rhetorical question, but I I it's a really good question. What can one do?

Practical Empathy: Listen To Understand

SPEAKER_02 13:30

Number one, this is tough, and and you have to be very aware of this. Listening to understand, not to respond.

SPEAKER_00 13:39

That is exactly what it is.

SPEAKER_02 13:42

Yeah, because most of the time when you're listening to somebody, you're already formulating your response in your head, and you're missing half of the information they're trying to give you because you're already formulating what you want to say, and then you say it before they're done speaking. Could be, yeah. Or or you respond to just half of what they said, or a portion, and they didn't understand what they were really saying. Sure. So again, listening to understand, not to respond, reflecting emotions, even just acknowledging somebody. It's it's uh something like you could you could say, uh, you know what, the way you're speaking it feels like you were, it feels feels like you were you feel you felt overlooked or you felt ignored. Yeah, it's just kind of acknowledging their emotion and knowing, yeah, I I understand what you're saying. You're it just gives you that that confirmation that oh, somebody's listening, somebody understands. This this is also very nuanced, but definitely can be done. Use curiosity instead of judgment. Help me understand. Okay. Are you are you being are you being facetious? Yeah, I'm being I thought so. I thought so. That that that's part of the help me understand. Yes, yes, but being curious and not judgmental, because somebody can say something to you that you might think, ooh, but but as soon as you respond like that, you've totally discounted their their statement or their feeling. Almost like, oh, that's wrong. You shouldn't feel that way, right? Or using the word butt. Uh-huh. So so cure you use curiosity instead of judgment. So how do we how do we implement emotional intelligence in daily life? So a lot of people are like, Yes, I understand this, I understand the need for it, I understand the importance of it. So, where do you where do we implement this in our day-to-day? How do we fit into this? Yes. So here's EI in some key areas. Relationships is huge because a lot of times in relationships, typically, and this is what I see one person might have very good emotional intelligence and the other person does not. And trying to mesh those two becomes very, very difficult. Oh, yeah. Because you have one person who just doesn't get it, really, when it comes down to it. So in relationships, here's some things, here's some key things to kind of tap in or kind of foster that emotional intelligence. Communicating your needs clearly. Again, your needs, not your wants, your needs, what you need. I need to wear women's underwear. Effective, effectively managing conflict. Sorry.

SPEAKER_06 16:25

No, no, just came.

SPEAKER_01 16:31

That came out of love field, but boy, that escalated quickly. I mean, that really got out of hand.

SPEAKER_00 16:40

Joey Tribiani did it.

Using Curiosity Instead Of Judgment

SPEAKER_02 16:41

I know, right? Absolutely. Repairing after emotional missteps. So in in any relationship, you're gonna have mess-ups. It's just gonna happen. We're human beings, we make mistakes. It's going to happen in a relationship. Yes. The best thing you can do is re after these emotional missteps is to repair it. And and we'll get into some some very specific things a little bit later on. Do simple words, Dave. I'm sorry. Yeah, that that's sincere. I'm sorry. Sincere, I'm sorry. So, Matt, this goes right into workplace. Yeah. Work and leadership, giving feedback, yeah, handling stress, yeah, reading the room. Oh gosh, yeah. Those are those are all things you need in a workplace for emotional leader, for emotional intelligence.

SPEAKER_00 17:32

You know, back in the 80s, yeah, they used to say when you're giving a speech or when you're in front of a group of people speaking or what have you, they always say, picture people in their underwear, yeah, and that'll get you over, you know, anyway. Yeah. Honestly, you don't want to do that in this day and age. No, because that'll just either make you throw up or you're sitting with HR.

SPEAKER_02 17:57

So or you just can't step out from the podium, right?

SPEAKER_04 18:00

Oh, great Odin Fraven.

SPEAKER_00 18:04

What was that? Police Academy? Yeah, that's what that was.

SPEAKER_04 18:08

What in places are you talking about?

SPEAKER_00 18:10

No, it's not important. Yeah, yeah. But that last point that the emotional intelligence in the workplace, as a leader, you have to be able to listen. Yeah. And you have to be able to find a common ground and understand where they're coming from because there's always a lesson to be learned. Absolutely. Whether it be customer-based, whether it be co-worker-based, whether it be an ethics issue, there is an area for everyone to come and be on the same page. And it might take a while to get there. Yeah. But it there that it does exist. Yep.

SPEAKER_02 18:47

So the the next area as far as emotional intelligence and daily life, which we wouldn't we wouldn't have had this on this list 20 years ago, but no social media and digital content.

SPEAKER_00 18:57

Yeah. There, there and you have to be so careful in this day and age, Dave, because things can go back forever. I know. Once it's out there, it's out there.

Relationships: Needs, Repair, Conflict

SPEAKER_02 19:06

So in in in and really I and I've said this to clients numerous times, especially people with let's call it political anxiety.

SPEAKER_00 19:18

Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 19:19

There just in general.

SPEAKER_00 19:20

It's there's a lot of stuff going around.

SPEAKER_02 19:22

So and I always tell clients, listen, if some, if if there's important news, if there's something you really need to know, it will get to you. So take a step back from content. A lot of times we just get wrapped up and get emotionally charged and and just emotionally involved in social media content. And it affects the way it affects us living our life day to day. It affects our how we how we work. Yeah. Well, yeah, it affects how you work, how you interact with others. Is that I mean, even feelings about yourself, because I mean, I mean, let's face it, there's a lot of wasted time on social media for everyone. Yeah, I I mean I I I include myself in that. It's not, you know, I'm not immune to it. I get it. You know what I did this past week?

SPEAKER_00 20:08

What I shut down Candy Crush.

SPEAKER_02 20:11

Oh, nice.

SPEAKER_00 20:12

Shut it down because it just I felt like I was taking way too much time.

SPEAKER_02 20:15

It's funny you say that, Matt, because every once in a while I'll just be like, Oh, this looks like a fun game. Right. After like a couple of days, I'm like, oh no, I I need I just need to delete it.

SPEAKER_00 20:26

Yeah, I just do, but I just I just can't I shut I shut it down, and I feel after just a couple of days, I'm like, eh, no, really. I I don't even really need it. I don't know why I was doing it to begin with.

SPEAKER_02 20:37

Well, that's the whole thing. It's it's just a time killer. Yeah, it's but but here, but but here's here's the key, and and people know this. Well, you should know it. You've probably heard it. These social media platforms know exactly what they're doing. These algorithms are meant to keep you there, to keep you clicking, to keep you scrolling. Psychologically, they have you in a trap, and that's exactly what they want. Advertising, information, uh you know, uh uh money and engagement, that's what they're looking for.

SPEAKER_00 21:08

I can only imagine what my phone's gonna show me after our show tonight. So go on, right?

Workplace EI: Feedback & Reading Rooms

SPEAKER_02 21:13

So so it's important to just take a step back from that in knowing when not to engage. Because again, how how many times have you seen somebody'll make a benign comment on on a on a social media and then just get this just crap load of backlash and responses, and it's like it's it's it's you're just expending all this emotional energy into the ether. It doesn't, you don't even know these people. Nope, you've never met them, but you never will meet them.

SPEAKER_00 21:44

But the ether is getting to know you.

SPEAKER_02 21:46

Well, no, absolutely, because every time you engage, it's it it's knows what is going to pull your it's it knows what's going to get you engaged again.

SPEAKER_00 21:55

Sure, yeah, yeah. So, yeah, social media is a part of your emotional intelligence, knowing when. to back the F off. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 22:02

Especially if it's affecting you negatively. And I as I say to clients, listen, I understand you feel like you want to be responsible. You want to be informed. That's that's admirable. I get that. That's great. But there is a spot where you can go too far with it and you just get too enmeshed. And then you that affects your day-to-day. Yeah. And that's that's the problem. So how do we build emotional intelligence over time? Because EI is not just something you achieve and you're like, oh I've arrived. Here it is.

SPEAKER_00 22:34

It's either natured because you're you based on how you grew up it's either part of your nature and you know your genetics or what have you or it's nurtured.

unknown 22:43

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:44

It's either natured or nurtured because to learn it to to get good at it to become an expert in your own emotional intelligence and then being able to see someone else's emotional intelligence and be empathetic to it that takes time to develop and that's the nurturing part of it. Yes, absolutely. Either way it's still something that you have to put into practice. Yes. Whether it's something you have to work at whether you grew up with it and it's a part of your genetics or if there's something a skill that you had to learn.

Social Media Boundaries & Overload

SPEAKER_02 23:11

It's it's like any other mental health issues. EI is it's it's it's a it's a lifelong practice. You always want to be working on it. And here's the thing progress is key pro how do how do I say this progress is much more important than perfection because you're never going to get perfection. No. As long as you're progressing that's what you need to look at. And here's the other thing that you have to kind of give yourself some some credit for being aware is progress. It's already growth. So when we talked earlier I think in episode one for this being aware of your emotional state oh yeah and your in your emotional intelligence. So let me give you some daily practices something you can do every day to help grow your emotional intelligence. And there's a great resource that I'm going to mention after that. Perfect. Perfect one number one emotional check-in per day okay so throughout any day every day at least once a day just kind of check in with yourself. What am I feeling right now? What am I feeling sad? Am I feeling bored? Am I am I feeling frustrated? But do do that check-in because what it will do it is going to train you just to be aware of your emotional state over time. Sure. Pause before responding at least once a day. So important and then have one empathetic question in every conversation you have.

SPEAKER_00 24:40

That's tough to do because you don't know what type of conversations you're going to have. Correct. And you need to prepare yourself to be empathetic. You may not be in the best situation in this conversation or whatever scenario is going on but you need to find that empathy and that and that gray area with that other person to come into balance with that's really tough to do.

SPEAKER_02 25:03

And and I guess the question becomes you know if you if if you improve your emotional intelligence what would change would would your would your interactions with other people change? Yes. Yeah would your would your workplace environment change? Absolutely yeah would your relationships with with your spouse and your kids change? Oh yes even your ex yeah I mean everything. Come on this is and and and that's the real big thing it's it's it's not just oh I I I'm just going to feel better. It's it's it's building this over time so it's sustainable. Sure. It's not just a fleeting feeling because you can feel you can feel happy one day but next day you you feel depressed. So so what we want to do with emotional intelligence is build that consistency so it's always in place every day. And again even with these daily practices as soon as you have that down to do each of these once a day increase it. Then it becomes habit then it becomes automatic and it it and it becomes who you are you don't even have to think about it anymore.

SPEAKER_00 26:07

Yeah I I love that you're looking me in the eye and telling me this because you're pretty much the choir yeah but I can see the passion uh that you have in this topic so I really do appreciate that have you ever heard of the author by the name of Daniel Goodman? I believe I have yes I think I know his name and he has a book it's called EI Emotional Intelligence Why It Can Matter More Than IQ Oh I'm already in. Yeah so he's kind of like the father of emotional intelligence okay okay um that that is a resource of a book that I'm reading through right now perfect to understand so I can speak intelligently yeah during my speech emotionally intelligence yes but it it's a there's a lot of really great snippets that he has in his book and some of his quotes are spot on. Yeah it's just it it really helps one to be comfortable in their own skin when it comes to being emotionally intelligent. Yeah you may not think you are you may know more than you know.

SPEAKER_02 27:05
