Ep 195: Why Emotional Intelligence Matters More Than Ever After Coercive Control


Listen Later

Have you ever walked out of a court hearing, a meeting with a professional, or even a hard parenting moment and thought, 

“Well, that didn’t come out the way I meant it?”

Maybe your anxiety came out sharp.  

Maybe your urgency sounded like anger.

Or maybe you were doing everything you knew of to protect your child but feel like you showed up as “mentally unstable.”

When you have lived through coercive control and continued post separation abuse, your nervous system will continually scan for danger and has been conditioned to suppress specific emotions like anger.  This can be a huge obstacle as you heal and try to get decision makers to understand the truth about what is going on.

In this episode, we dive into why emotional intelligence is one of the biggest healing and protective strategies for you and your children.  Emotional intelligence is about noticing what is happening inside you so that you can show up in ways you feel good about.
