Ever been blindsided by someone who could discuss quantum physics but couldn't handle basic criticism? In this eye-opening episode, MindShift Coach Fatima Bey reveals why we mistakenly equate intelligence with emotional maturity—and how this assumption wreaks havoc in our relationships.


Through the revealing story of "Melissa," a professionally brilliant woman whose emotional development stalled at age five, Fatima exposes the warning signs of emotional immaturity hiding behind intellectual prowess. Learn to recognize the red flags that signal when someone's impressive cognitive abilities mask troubling emotional patterns, including the telltale sign of people consistently removing themselves from someone's life.


Discover how to protect yourself from manipulation by those who weaponize their intelligence while lacking the emotional skills needed for healthy relationships. This raw, honest exploration offers practical guidance for evaluating relationships more holistically.
