Discover how emotional sensitivity can be a powerful tool for personal and professional growth. In this episode, Debra Maldonado and Dr. Rob Maldonado conclude their series on the Big Five Personality traits and the Persona with an enlightening discussion on neuroticism (emotional sensitivity) and its impact on coaching.

Exploring emotional awareness and resilience, we redefine what it means to embrace rather than shy away from our feelings. In this episode, we discuss:

  • The true definition of neuroticism and its importance in emotional sensitivity
  • The role of resilience and shadow integration in handling life's challenges
  • How emotions like anger, shame, and guilt can be useful when properly understood
  • Techniques for coaches to harness emotional intelligence for greater effectiveness
