Emotional Intelligence in Relationships

Emotional Intelligence is a multifaceted construct that encompasses the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one's own emotions, as well as the capacity to perceive and influence the emotions of others. Coined by psychologists Peter Salovey and John D. Mayer, and popularized by author and science journalist Daniel Goleman, EI extends beyond mere intellectual prowess, delving into the realm of emotional awareness, empathy, and effective interpersonal skills.
