Too many people are numb to life, unable to enjoy themselves and their relationships even if they've achieved great things. The real problem isn't intelligence, skill, or drive. It's a failure to process emotions properly because they've lost the ability to use their "heart-mind." Sadly, most of us have been subtly conditioned to not even know we're approaching this all wrong. Thankfully, you can learn how to regain clarity of your heart-mind. And once you do, and stick with it, the results are astounding. In today's episode, I'll share three key ideas about your heart-mind–your mental and emotional center–so you can stop feeling frustrated, and start feeling fulfilled. Listen now! Show highlights include: What emotional maturity really is, and why most people are left in the dark about it. (1:38) Emotional intelligence "playbook" so you can know exactly how to plan your mental training. (9:32) What "shutdown theory" gets wrong and how it sabotages your joy and vitality.
