How to increase emotional intelligence is one of the most important questions for anyone who wants more clarity, calm, and resilience. In this session you will discover seven science-backed practices that strengthen self-regulation, empathy, and awareness in the moments you need them most. You will learn how to expand the space between trigger and response, label emotions with precision, and reframe thoughts before they spiral. We will explore how daily check-ins prevent emotions from overflowing, how perspective-taking reduces conflict, and how expressive writing organizes tangled feelings into order. You will also see how active responding deepens connection and how a refined emotional vocabulary makes choices clearer. With insights from neuroscience and psychology, this practice shows that emotional intelligence is not fixed. It can be trained, strengthened, and turned into a foundation for resilience in every part of life.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
