We talk about emotional intelligence all the time—but do we really understand what it looks like in a relationship?

This episode dives into the part we don’t talk about enough: not just managing your own emotions, but learning how to help your partner manage theirs. What if emotional intelligence wasn’t just about you, but also about how you show up for the people you love? From co-regulating to understanding triggers and unspoken needs, we’re unpacking the emotional labor, empathy, and silent expectations that shape relationships.

Are you truly emotionally intelligent, or just self-aware? Let’s find out.
