As men, we do many things to attempt to win the favor of an intimate partner, to build a strong friendship, to establish successful business partnerships and to just attract others to us in any way.

We work out to maintain our physique, we get trendy haircuts, we wear fashionable clothes, we drive sports cars, we flaunt our proverbial peacock feathers--all in an attempt to get people to notice us, to like us, to think highly of us, and to get them close to us in any way possible.

But... that's all outside stuff. That's all stuff--as much as we may say it represents our personal taste and individuality--that tries to paint a picture of who we are for others to see, but it only goes so deep. It's pretty shallow.

All this stuff screams "look at me" but we hardly ever stop to take the time to look at someone else, really look at them and really see them. We never let people see the real us, the true us, the us that needs that needs that sports car to make up for our lack of communication, the us that needs that perfect body because we are deeply insecure.

Join me as I have a deep conversation with Victor Ung on the rise and importance of emotional intelligence. We talk about why it's so important and how we can strengthen it to form deeper connections not only with others, but with ourselves.

In this day and age where women are becoming more empowered and more independent than ever, being a man with a chiseled body, large bank account and a garage full of sports cars isn't quite as enough as it used to be to attract those relationships into your life. We need to go deeper.
