How to Fix the Healthcare System with Dr. Mickey Liebowitz
We explore the critical role of emotional intelligence (EQ) in healthcare and discuss the challenges faced by both physicians and patients in today's complex healthcare landscape.
Here are 3 key takeaways from our engaging conversation:
1️⃣ Emotional intelligence (EQ) is vital for effective healthcare: Understanding and managing emotions play a significant role in building trust and effective communication between physicians and patients. Physicians with high EQ are more likely to empower and motivate their patients, leading to better compliance with medical instructions and improved health outcomes.
2️⃣ Burnout is a pressing issue in healthcare: Healthcare professionals, particularly primary care physicians, face immense pressure and are susceptible to burnout due to factors like increased patient volumes, bureaucratic hurdles, and moral injury. By recognizing these challenges and finding ways to address them, we can create a healthier work environment and improve patient care.
3️⃣ Taking personal responsibility for our health: While physicians play a crucial role in providing guidance and expertise, it is essential for individuals to take ownership of their own health. Educating ourselves about our medical conditions, maintaining accurate medication lists, and being proactive during office visits can lead to more efficient and effective healthcare experiences.

Own Your History
We tackle the important topic of owning our history and embracing the valuable lessons it teaches us. We delve into how our past experiences shape our perspectives, our emotional intelligence (EQ), and our future. Here's a brief overview of what you can expect:
🔎 Looking Back for Growth: The episode highlights the power of examining our mistakes and failures, rather than ignoring or being embarrassed by them. Our history is filled with lessons waiting to be learned, and by reflecting on our past, we can uncover valuable insights. Discover how curiosity and emotional intelligence play vital roles in this process.
💔 Understanding Hurtful Behaviors: The hosts emphasize the significance of recognizing patterns of behavior, particularly in our relationships with others. By paying attention to warning signs and analyzing past experiences, we can avoid repeating negative patterns and address issues head-on. Learn how to navigate challenging situations with courage, curiosity, and reflection.
💪 Empowerment through Healing: The episode takes a deep dive into the transformative power of facing our past trauma and paying attention to it. Instead of avoiding pain, we can find healing by acknowledging our history and making intentional choices for our future. Explore the importance of self-empathy, accountability, and emotional intelligence in this empowering journey.

The Old Self and The New Self with Jim Vaive
If you've been following our podcast, you might recall that we've had some fascinating conversations with Jim in the past about spiritual emotional intelligence. But today, we dive even deeper into his journey of transformation and self-discovery.
Here are 3 key takeaways from our captivating conversation:
1️⃣ The Power of Self-Reflection: Throughout the episode, we explored the importance of self-reflection and understanding our past experiences. It was fascinating to discuss how our old selves can shape us, and by embracing personal growth and change, we can become our new selves. This journey allows us to tap into our true potential and make positive impacts in both our personal and professional lives.
2️⃣ Embracing Vulnerability and Authenticity: We touched upon the significance of being vulnerable and authentic in who we are. I openly shared my own experiences of feeling the need to prove myself and achieve external success, only to find that it left me feeling empty and unfulfilled. Our discussion emphasized the importance of embracing our true selves and cultivating genuine connections with others.
3️⃣ The Role of Love and Kindness: Love truly holds everything together. It was inspiring to explore how, after years of extensive studying and learning from masters all over the world, the simple truth that emerged for both Eric and me was the power of love and kindness. In a world that can sometimes feel fractured and disconnected, cultivating love and kindness can bring us closer, foster understanding, and create positive change.
We hope you enjoy the podcast. Hopefully, you're tuning in on a regular basis. We'd love it if you would give us a great review on whatever platform you're listening to the podcast. It's so appreciative and helps us as we try to get more exposure for the work we do and the episodes that we publish. We're grateful to you as a listener.

The New Workplace Environment with Global HR Executive Robert Brezosky
Robert Brezosky is a highly experienced Global Human Resources Executive with a successful record of transformational leadership across multiple areas of HR - including HR Operations, Talent Mobility, Early Career Development Programs, Recruiting, and HR Teams, in large multinational organizations, including PwC, The Walt Disney Company, and most recently Netflix.
Robert is considered a Visionary Leader who sees possibilities, reimagines the future, and generates excitement and buy-in for a new vision at all levels. In all of Robert’s leadership roles, he’s built and inspired high-performing teams - he accomplishes this using the approach of “individualization” which means he takes the time to understand and invest in making each team member successful, ultimately enabling his team to perform beyond what was ever imagined.
Robert is as committed to his own development as he is to that of his team’s development. He’s always looking for new ways to contribute to an organization, especially when that involves seeking new and exciting challenges.
For example, in January of 2022 with COVID cases surging and Amsterdam on lockdown, Robert packed up and moved there for a one-year assignment to lead HR Operations for Netflix’s EMEA region where he quickly set a vision, built a team, and formed trusting relationships to evolve and grow the function.
Robert is a master at building relationships, bringing a unique level of candor and authenticity to every interaction, ultimately advancing and accelerating desired business outcomes.
One of the things that truly sets Robert apart as a leader is his unique ability to balance empathy with the needs of the business, bringing just the right balance of business acumen and a human element connection to every interaction.
Robert is a huge dog lover, and outside of work he is actively engaged in supporting an LA-based dog rescue that he recently helped to establish, known as “Hope for China Dogs Rescue.” His favorite creative outlets are baking, cooking, and hosting parties for friends & family. And, his favorite way to foster a healthy state of mind and body is through regularly hiking some of the beautiful LA trails.

The Curated Life with Timmy McCarthy of Cocoon Investments, Part 2
Timmy is the type of entrepreneur that inspires at every turn. He provides a combination of realism and optimism that is rare. I believe the audience will be drawn to his story, his approach to navigating transitions and why people matter most.
Tim McCarthy is an entrepreneur and social change advocate with almost twenty years of experience in the business world. Tim spent many years building and focusing on RCO Limited, the Ohio Franchise Partner of Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers. He built this up to be the largest franchise organization within the Raising Cane’s system, and Tim and RCO Limited became known for their impressive results as well as the way they advocated for and supported their employees.
Motivated by the social impact made possible by a successful business, and desiring to make this impact on a larger scale, Tim and his business partners purchased WorkPlace Impact (then WorkPlace Media) in 2013. In July 2017, Cara Zale, a Social Capital Investment Company was bor…

Ode To Success And Joy
We've, on more than one occasion, tackled what happens when we're dealing with struggles and how to manage them. Sometimes that's from the mental health perspective, and sometimes, just from the challenges that the world presents.
But we should be able to talk about the success and joy that we're experiencing even in the midst of maybe rapid change and uncertainty
Why it's important for us to recognize someone's successes or wins.

Courageous Creativity with Lee Ann Lander
We welcome back again Lee Ann Lander. Can creativity and the corporate world live in harmony? We think so, and so does our guest, Lee Ann Lander.
She is the owner of Lee Ann Lander Art and Creative Consulting.
We all have "gifts." But how and when did we get to the place where each of us recognizes those "gifts"?
But then as adults, we state we aren't creative. Why do we continue these myths about ourselves?
And then we feel creativity is squashed when we enter the corporate world. But creativity does show up - create problem-solving, as an example.

The Journey of Grief with Jess Laughlin
Jess Laughlin is the founder and head “good vibes” gifter at xoLaughlinCo., where she’s helped hundreds of people overcome the fear and awkwardness of reaching out to people during heavy life moments. Her online shop features thoughtfully curated gifts, primarily sourced from small businesses and helps express just the right sentiment for loved ones who’ve experienced everything from miscarriage or loss of a family member, to struggles with mental health and everyday sh*t.
Like many other women in 2020, Jess decided to start a business in her basement. After losing her dad to heart disease a few years prior, she experienced first-hand how a small but thoughtful gift could allow her to feel seen and understood. Her journey has been both lonely and awkward, and she believes we can all do better to support one another. Jess has been on a mission to normalize grief ever since, opening up about her own experiences and encouraging others to do the same.

Laughter is The Best Medicine
Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease. Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain.
Laughter releases the neurotransmitter dopamine, which serves as a reward for the brain, creates a sense of euphoria, and plays a pivotal role in our motivation to continue the behavior.
Enjoy the Fish Slapping Dance that was mentioned by Jeff.
And a great episode of The Carol Burnett Show. Enjoy!

Timmy is the type of entrepreneur that inspires at every turn. He provides a combination of realism and optimism that is rare. I believe the audience will be drawn to his story, his approach to navigating transitions and why people matter most.

Tim spent many years building and focusing on RCO Limited, the Ohio Franchise Partner of Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers. He built this up to be the largest franchise organization within the Raising Cane’s system, and Tim and RCO Limited became known for their impressive results as well as the way they advocated for and supported their employees.

The Importance Of Optimism
While we are all experiencing world turbulence together, we are all handling this challenging time differently. We know that it can be difficult to stay motivated, but that doesn’t mean you should stop thinking about your dream future. Right now, more than ever, it’s important to embrace a positive mindset as much as you can.
Failure is not the end, in fact, it is often the beginning of something great. When things are good, we coast along without making any quantum leaps. When things go bad, our world gets shaken up, which requires us to grow, see new things, and start fresh.

Harnessing Your EQ Horsepower
Jeff expands on some "motorhead" terminology and how it relates to emotional intelligence.
He starts with the "rolling horsepower," or what is now called rolling resistance. How does this all relate to EQ?
The more weight (emotional baggage) you put on yourself (or in this example, a vehicle) the more horsepower (or your emotional energy) is needed.
Life can add to your emotional horsepower. And the more you need, the more likely you are to run out of emotional horsepower. This is where we need to manage life events. You may need to "pull off the road" to evaluate and determine what "emotional baggage" just has to go.
Other episodes that lend to this discussion include...
* Applying Consequential Thinking
* Recognizing Patterns
* Increasing Empathy

Dealing With The Unknown
We certainly have had months to become familiar with dealing with the unknown. Some things we just have to let go. And envision the best (or better). It's a perfect time to reflect, and see the possibility beyond the clouds of the unknown.

Anxiety and Emotional Intelligence
As we have said many times, emotional intelligence (EQ) is the ability to identify, understand, and use your own emotions in positive ways to relieve anxiety, as well as relieve stress, too communicate effectively, to empathize with others, to overcome challenges, and to defuse conflict.
But having a high EQ does not mean a person isn’t occasionally anxious or depressed.
Jeff talks about his personal struggles with anxiety. And how, with the help of those around him, and his continued understanding of EQ, he now has a better outlook on how he addresses anxiety in everyday situations.
In this episode, Jeff mentions The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook. Packed with the most effective skills for assessing and treating anxiety, this evidence-based workbook contains the latest clinical research. You’ll find an arsenal of tools for quieting worry, ending negative self-talk, and taking charge of your anxious thoughts.

I'm Emotionally Intelligent. Why Isn't Everyone Else?
Do you know someone who never seems to be able to control their emotions? Perhaps they are constantly doing or saying the wrong things, at the wrong time. Or maybe they're always judging others, but have a hard time accepting criticism. If this describes someone you know, chances are high that this person struggles with low emotional intelligence.
Having low EQ or low emotional intelligence can negatively impact not only your interpersonal relationships but also your mental and physical health.
The ability to regulate emotions is one of the components of emotional intelligence. People with low EQ often struggle to understand and control their emotions.
We cover some ground on what you, as a person increasing your emotional intelligence, can do when those around you aren't. And know this, you aren't alone.

Special Guest Bill O'Herron
Bill O’Herron, LCSW is a corporate executive, practicing therapist (weekends and evenings), and writer who seeks to use his 33 years of financial sales management experience, 24 years of marriage, 15 years of counseling clients, and 8,500 hours of sitting quietly to help his clients better understand themselves and deepen their relationships.
Bill teaches that all our relationships with others, especially our marriage, started in 4th grade, when our limbic-emotional body learned, absorbed, and inherited our parents’ lives and experiences. We are all therefore married to our own old, unconscious emotions more so than to our spouse.
His research shows that relationships fail for one single reason: a lack of understanding of one’s own emotions and reaction patterns created in childhood. His work with archetypes demonstrates also that relationships are not a single experience or dyad between two people but are eight unique relationships all occurring at the same time.

Let's revisit the model that we use, which is from a company called Six Seconds. We us this as the basis of our model of emotional intelligence.

What are some of the things some of the trends that we may be looking at?
Like changes in the way that we work. Companies are planning to downsize facilities because they found out that they can work from home instead of coming into an office. And this scenario is loaded with benefits and detriments.
What will your life be in hybrid mode? All-in mode? Do you have continued self-care modes in place to support what is coming?

Forgiveness
This is a topic we have not covered, and we felt it was a great time to do so. With social distancing, and the stress points we've all had to endure, forgiveness has become a bit more difficult to give at times. And that includes forgiving ourselves at time.
Here are some steps we outline in the podcast that can help you.
Step 1: Acknowledge - Acknowledge the hurt.
Step 2: Consider - Consider how the hurt and pain has affected you.
Step 3: Accept - Accept that you cannot change the past.
Step 4: Determine - Determine whether or not you will forgive.
Step 5: Repair - Repair the relationship with the person who wronged you.
Step 6: Learn - Learn what forgiveness means to you.

Circumstances
Circumstances are these things that alter our normal path. Or what we perceive to be normal path. And require us to take a different route.
When change comes, whether it be good or bad, there's a confrontation in our head. Because our brain has developed, or we've developed in concert with our brain, these neural pathways. They can be as complex as a freeway system, or as simple as a residential street.
To find out more about neural pathways, check out Episode 2 - Recognizing Patterns.
And during these circumstances we all had to deal with, self care has become more important than ever. Self care is how we treat our physical or mental, our spiritual and emotional person.
"What is occupying your soul," and is it making your life better again? If it is making your life better, keep doing it.

Too Quick To Judgement
We and our work with clients talk a lot about the importance of curiosity versus judgment.
In today's episode, we talk a little bit about the good side of judgment and the bad side of judgment. And how we can kind of find ourselves more balanced around how we look at the subject.
As we've always stressed in our podcast, exhaust curiosity before you go to judgment.
The more curious you are about something means you're gathering more information. The more you learn about something, the better you'll be at making a decision. In this case, making a judgment.
Staying curious allows you to figure out what your motivations are. And that your motivations may be different than from the person or group you are judging.
You have to actually engage your brain a little bit and think about why you are feeling that way about that person or group. Think it through. You're navigating your own emotions first. Then, you're navigating that other person's emotions.

Working on You
Now that we are into the second half of the year, how is it going for YOU? How is it going as you work on you?
New Year's Resolutions are now more than six months old. Many of yours may been broken in just a few short weeks. Others, a couple of months. The desire, the fire, is just gone.
But the ones that really mean something are probably still being worked on today. If you're in that place, your emotional intelligence can maybe either reignite you or may potentially just keep you going.
Hurdles you may be running up against are when we self-judge ourselves, or even judge others. Judgment decision are not only easy, but they are quick. And that's dangerous because when that happens, you're operating on very, very limited information.
And this is where we should let our curiosity take over. Ask questions, be informed, and understand why you shouldn't come to judge yourself, or others, too quickly. That opens up more choices, more options. It gives you the ability to leverage one…

Leadership and The Art of Leading a Motorcycle Group Ride
Jeff brings to life how leadership plays a key role in the art of leading a motorcycle group ride. And how the examples from that leadership role can be used in business organizations."As a leader, you need to have a goal of where you want to end, you need to set the expectations, like one of the expectations that you would set on a group (ride), when we get to the goal. We're going to ride back as a group or you're on your own, as an example. You want to set those expectations that everyone has. What is the desired performance that I would like to see from you? And then the good leader has to pay attention to what's going on. And I think that the last and the most important thing, the good leader needs to understand how to use the people best for everyone's benefit, not just for that person's benefit, but how is that going to affect everyone else. How is it going to make it better for everyone involved?"

Another way to look at your purpose is two words that we use in the Six Second model emotional intelligence called Noble Goal. A Noble Goal is what defines who you are. It's a goal that is not achievable. It's not a goal, like I want to be a millionaire, or own the company. It's what gets you up in the morning.
While refining this statement is important, we also caution don't rush to the final statement. We go over what we mean in this episode.

Recognizing Patterns
What does “recognizing patterns” mean?
Understanding “if this happens...I do that." In other words, how you respond to situations.
Neural pathways are created when you react the same way, time after time. These pathways can be re-written – but don't get erased.
“Pushing a person's buttons” can be positive as well as negative.
The danger of patterns – they become an easy path – and can lead to negative reactions.
“Respond” and “React” - don't both terms mean the same thing?
Jeff's homework assignment – pay attention to the reactions you have, and did you get the outcome you wanted?

Enhancing Emotional Literacy
What is emotional literacy?
Our emotions are chemical. When you are confronted, your body dumps chemicals into your brain. These chemicals get you ready for fight, flight, freeze or flock. The job of the emotion is to give you information.
But our emotions are neutral – it's what you do with those emotions that causes a reaction.
There are 8 basic emotions:
1) anger
2) anticipation
3) disgust
4) fear
5) joy
6) sadness
7) surprise
8) trust
How can we approach and control these emotions? We can use the Plutchick Model of Emotions.
This model puts emotions into categories and ranks emotions.
Jeff's homework assignment for you – write down what emotions you went through today. Why did that emotion happen?
