Stop Letting Your Emotions Hijack Your Success | Travis Bradberry

Stop Letting Your Emotions Hijack Your Success | Travis Bradberry

What if your success as a leader, parent, or partner depends less on IQ — and more on emotional intelligence?

On today’s episode, we sit down with Dr. Travis Bradberry — best-selling author and one of the world’s leading voices on emotional intelligence (EQ). With over 5 million books sold, including his latest The New Emotional Intelligence, Dr. Bradberry has spent decades studying how EQ shapes performance, relationships, and well-being.

In this conversation, we explore what emotional intelligence looks like in action: how it shows up in leadership under pressure, how it impacts the quality of your relationships, and what happens when it’s missing.

You’ll learn:

  • Why EQ often outperforms IQ and technical skills as a predictor of success
  • How to recognize blind spots that undermine relationships and performance
  • What leaders with high EQ do differently when stakes are high
  • Strategies for cultivating self-awareness and self-regulation
  • Why EQ is central to living a “great life”


Tune in to hear Dr. Bradberry share practical strategies for building EQ in the modern world — and why doing so can unlock deeper trust, resilience, and clarity in every part of your life.
