Thank you

Nicole Nicol

wow I got so much out of this and especially Ryans experience with family and how he handles it. Recently have been the recipient of a huge name, shame ,blame email of issues my brother has been holding onto for a decade, some I expected and understood and other things wow really surprised me. Your description really made me laugh as that's exactly what it was. I'm not perfect but he has never done a thing wring apparently. I didnt feel like getting into a tit for tat and so after much upset I have to be happy that he got it all off his chest finally and allow him to love me from afar as Ryan puts it. I reflected on myself and my actions and I feel like whatever I do will be seen as manipulative but maybe I have more emotional intelligence so I accepted his feedback and now I just going to do as you've said and not require his validation. Maybe he required too much of mine and that what makes him so mad that he has to make me agree with his perspective of everything. Oh well , thank you and would love to hear more along the lines of this x

By far this is one of my favorite episodes. “We are already complete” …so the need of praise…can only incomplete you. “We are already happy” …there is not external happiness. -deep words Josh. TY Emotional Intelligence is so essential for us to understand. I hope everyone listening is self aware of this misery that we keep blaming others for the way they do things, or say things, that doesn’t lean towards our pursuit of happiness…doing it less will be the beginning of your new journey with emotional intelligence. Sending good vibes to all 🤟
