In this episode, Cheryl and Sheri discuss:
Why we should speak to people emotionally
Give yourself permission to be real
Countering judgment with curiosity
What is digital eq
Key Takeaways:
We need to understand that 90% of decisions are emotionally based. Often, we try to rationalize logically what we have already decided emotionally.
Speaking with emotion starts with giving yourself permission to be more of your true self. When you make yourself available, vulnerable, and real to people, they’ll want to be with you more.
If you find yourself being critical of a person or find it very difficult to deal with them, you’ve got to practice curiosity. Before meeting the person, you’ve got to pause, sit down, and ask yourself what they could be going through in their life.
Digital emotional intelligence is the intersection of digital influence and emotional intelligence. Invest time and effort into creating and crafting a brand that’s authentic, something that’s true to you, and put intentionality behind it.
“The more available you are, the more curious you are, the more vulnerable you are, the more people are going to want to be with you.” — Sheri Fitts
