We all experience emotions, but how many of us understand them and can unlock the messages they are sending us? Emotional literacy is just that, the ability to recognise, interpret and regulate our emotions.
This week on Purpose To Performance I’m fortunate to be joined by an expert on the subject. Dan Newby has spent the last 20 years researching, coaching, writing, and speaking about emotions. He’s one of the foremost authorities on the topic of emotional literacy. As an ontological and somatic coach, Dan helps people explore their emotions to create greater awareness and develop the skills to navigate their personal and professional lives with greater dexterity and balance.
Listen in as Dan helps me navigate through this fascinating and important conversation about emotions and how we can improve our emotional intelligence.
