Hosted by Sandra McKechnie, with guest Lorrie Simunovic. Emotional Intelligence Gives Agility to Love Emotionally and Intellectually. Liberating Us to Love Boldly! In the context of social justice, love is more than an emotion or personal feeling. It is a powerful, active force and discipline with the potential to manifest liberation, freedom and consciousness in many forms. Practicing emotional intelligence can empower us together to recover from chronic negative emotional states, to love boldly despite fear or criticism, and to develop love as a consistent practice and sustaining vision. This discipline strengthens our capacity to transform communities with compassion, integrity, and courage.
