In this episode, I delve into the fascinating world of emotions and how often we misunderstand them. You might think you're good at reading how others feel, but actually you very often get it wrong. For example, a simple smile can signify a range of emotions, from happiness to anxiety or even anger.These misunderstandings can lead to conflicts, disagreements, breakdowns and even breakups. To improve your ability to understand emotions, you need to become more mindful and take a moment to reflect on your own habits.I also share about why we really need to give people the benefit of the doubt and simply ask them how they're feeling (so we don't make these wrong assumptions). Join me to explore the world of emotions and discover how avoiding these common mistakes can enhance your emotional intelligence and deepen your relationships._ _ _If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.
