In this episode, I am talking with Sylvia Baffour. Sylvia is an author, professional Speaker, coach and trainer and a thought leader in the fields of Emotional Intelligence and Leadership.
Her book, I Dare You to Care, focuses on using emotional intelligence skills to inspire, influence and achieve remarkable growth and is a must read. HubSpot recently named Sylvia among the Top 15 most influential female motivational speakers alongside Oprah Winfrey and Mel Robbins.
Sylvia and I are talking about emotional intelligence, how we develop it and why it is so important. Syliva shares ways that we can all practice emotional intelligence to be more empathetic and more connected in our personal and professional lives. Sylvia is also sharing the story of her relationship with Maya Angelou, one of the most influential poets, authors and civil rights activists of our time. If you’ve listened to the podcast before, you know I end each episode with the wise and inspiring words of Dr. Angelou, and I assure you this conversation with Sylvia is sure to inspire you just as her friend and mentor Dr. Angelou inspired so many.
