This was a wide-ranging conversation with emotional intelligence coach Emile Steenveld—previously an Australian model and actor traveling the globe for 12 years—he now works as a coach + facilitator, focusing on the inner workings of the relationship with the self and the mind.

In this conversation we dive into:

🇮🇳 Emile's travels in India, learning lessons of simplicity... defining joy as the happiness that doesn't depend on what happens.

🦆 One of the most interesting tangents the topic of being a recovering perfectionist and what he calls duck syndrome

💪  How to build the muscle of emotional intelligence

🤷‍♂️  And some questions that have been running through my mind around Exploring new definitions of masculinity and how to express fully without fear of judgment.

📝  Journal prompts that Emile uses when starting new projects.
