Why Emotional Intelligence is the New Superpower to Level Up Your Recovery & Life

Have you ever thought about leveling up your personal development? Growing your emotional intelligence and emotional maturity can open the door to incredible transformations, both personally and professionally. And today, my amazing guest is the perfect example of how expanding your emotional toolkit can be your best move ever. I'm thrilled to welcome my new friend and emotional intelligence guru, Noble Gibbens, to the show. Noble didn’t just improve his emotional intelligence; he went ALL IN on growing his emotional maturity, redefining his relationships, career, and life in the process. And he’s here to share his journey—how understanding and regulating his emotions empowered him to become a better husband, father,  entrepreneur, and mentor. Honestly—can you imagine navigating relationships or your career with the emotional skills you had as a teenager? No way!

If I think about the difference between my emotional capacity in my first few years of sobriety compared to today, the transformation is massive!
