The Relational Intelligence Podcast
We all crave human connection, acceptance, and love but not all of us have learned how to relate to one another or even ourselves well. The Relational Intelligence Podcast (T.R.I.P.) is all about finding ways to develop happy, healthy, and fulfilling relationships, whether they be romantic, platonic, family, or work relationships. We'll have casual conversations about common relational obstacles and talk through ways that we can each individually do our part to present the best version of ourselves in our relationships.
