Welcome to Deeply Well.

This show is a soft place to land on your journey, a space where we explore what it truly means to live well from the inside out.

Not perfectly, but honestly. this is deeply well. I'm Debbie Brown and

welcome back to the show. So today we are exploring emotional intelligence and parenting,

but more specifically, what it really means to understand, navigate, and build an relationship

with our emotional world.

Because emotional intelligence isn't just something that we learn.

It's something that we have to practice moment by moment and how we meet ourselves and

others.

So today, I am so excited to dive into all the things. I'm really honored to have this conversation today with our very special guest,

of Ruler, an evidence-based framework for cultivating emotional intelligence that has been

adapted by more than 5,000 schools worldwide.
