We've all been there. You're invited to some sort of gathering where there are people you haven't seen in awhile. Maybe you've been busy with work or other obligations, but you know that if you go to this event, someone's going to make you feel guilty for not showing up more often. What do you do when that happens? Do you get angry, sad, or maybe defensive? This is where emotional intelligence comes into play. Emotional intelligence is exactly what it sounds like: being smart with your feelings and the feelings of others. Whether we like to admit it or not, we all feel things, and sometimes those feelings can conflict with the feelings of others. Emotional intelligence teaches concepts such as self-awareness, self-management, social-awareness and relationship management which allow conflicting parties to truly express and address their underlying needs rather than fuel a loop of anger and resentment. It's about understanding ourselves and being empathetic towards others. If something is bothering us, we tend to ask, "Why won't the other person change?", but a better question to ask is, "Why do I want the other person to change?" If the answer is just "because it would benefit me," then that's not a good enough reason. In this episode, we sit down with Sagar Satyal and discuss concepts such as empathy, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution and the awareness needed to truly live a meaningful life.
Our Speaker: Sagar Satyal
Sagar Satyal is the co-founder of My Emotions Matter, an organization based in Kathmandu Nepal whose mission is to help others live harmoniously by providing educational resources, screenings and consultation services regarding emotional management and emotional intelligence. Along with being a huge football fan and enjoying walks in the park, Sagar enjoys exploring himself and the role emotions play in our everyday lives. Taking each day as it comes, Sagar's goal is to live a meaningful life and to help create an environment for others to do the same. We’re proud to introduce Sagar Satyal.
