Emotional Intelligence–or EQ is now more vital than ever. In today’s episode of The Unbeatable Mind, Mark’s daughter Catherine is sitting down for a candid and insightful discussion about emotional development and the evolving landscape of leadership in a world that’s becoming more dominated by AI.

Catherine and Mark explore the limitations of traditional leadership models that prioritize IQ over EQ, touching on how emotional awareness, self-control, and the oft-overlooked concept of “us” in relationships are fundamental aspects of effective leadership. Drawing from their personal experiences, Mark and Catherine dissect the energy of emotions, the mind-body connection, and the importance of radical self-acceptance.

Together, Mark and Catherine emphasize that real growth does not happen in isolation, it’s our most challenging interactions through the emotional landscape that we become better leaders, teammates, and people.

Key Takeaways:

• Relational Development: Discover how the most impactful growth happens not in isolation, but through relationships. Real emotional development is tested through authentic connection and mutual vulnerability.

• EQ VS. IQ: Learn why Mark and Catherine believe EQ is the leadership superpower of the future. When machines can outperform us in data and logic, our unique advantage lies in self-awareness, empathy, and connection.

• The Body-Mind Connection: Understand how acknowledging the somatic side of your feelings can unlock deep growth and healing. Emotions are simply energy in motion—the body plays a key role.

• EQ as a Daily Practice: Recognize how emotional maturity is not a destination—but rather a lifelong journey that requires mindfulness, honest communication, and vulnerability.
