Summary

DR. MEG MEEKER with guests ALYSSA BLASK CAMPBELL “Emotional Intelligence” has become somewhat of a buzzword in today’s culture. In this episode, Alyssa breaks things down to describe how emotional intelligence is based on five components: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skills. “In terms of raising emotionally intelligent humans: We’re not talking about changing who kids are, but shifting how adults experience kids’ emotions.” Topics discussed in this episode include: · Finding a pause between reaction and response · Learning to regulate and choose words and actions wisely · Intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation: What is driving us? · Why are the birth-to-age 5 years so important? · Why our nervous system is like a battery; it drains throughout the day & needs to be recharged · And more!

0:13.1	Meg Meeker. Do you ever look at your toddler or teenager who are having a temper tantrum
0:18.0	and wonder what in the world are they doing? Why would they get so upset about something
0:25.0	that is so small? Well, learning about why kids feel the way they do and understanding
0:31.5	what's going on in their minds is what we're going to talk about today.
0:35.3	Alyssa Blask Campbell is my guest. She founded Seed and So, an organization that teaches
