S15E19: Relational Intelligence w/ Dr. Adam Bandelli

Move over EQ, we're shifting from emotional intelligence to relational intelligence as we chat with Dr. Adam Bandelli about why mastering relational intelligence is the #1 thing you need to focus on while dating. We discuss the 5 essential skills for building long-lasting, life-changing romantic connections, why developing rapport is more important than establishing chemistry, and how relational intelligence plays into all aspects of a relationship from when we meet to 30 years down the line.
