Today I speak with Dr. Josh Smith about coping mechanisms and how we deal with the peaks and valleys that life throws at us. We talk about EQ versus IQ and how a person could need different coping mechanisms based on both. 

We talk about:

-“ignorance is bliss”

-EQ versus IQ

-virtue of personality tests

-existing on a sliding scale

-the “perfect” person

-how people see you

-emotional development in kids 

-saying no
