There's a ton of data to show the more emotionally intelligent you are as a leader, the better your overall metrics are (team dynamics, team engagement, end-of-year revenue) including your happiness, career longevity and sense of purpose.

On this weeks podcast, I bring on a Latina Leader and Mindfulness expert, Paula Castillo MPP, to teach you one incredible skill, Non-Violent Communication, to increase your emotional intelligence and improve your communication.

Listen in and learn:

• How emotional intelligence impacts your ability to lead
• What is Non-violent communication (NVC)?
• A step-by-step guide on how to use NVC at work and with your kids
• The power of NVC as a tool for self-compassion

Paula Castillo, MPP, is an economics consultant with the World Bank and a Mindfulness Coach. She was born and raised in Bogota, Columbia, and now spends her time in Washington DC with her beautiful family.

You'll learn how to let go of guilt and self-doubt so you can show up with confidence everywhere you go. No more questioning if your idea is good enough to share, if it's worth it to speak up, or if you're a good enough leader. All that self-critical B.S. stops now. Listen in as masterful educator and Harvard grad physician, Dr. Vanessa Calderón, teaches you how to let go of the things standing in the way of your success as a leader. Get ready, this podcast will accelerate your personal and professional growth.
