A ground-breaking 7-step plan to flex your way to better emotional fitness
The ability to turn off your emotions and focus only on the work might get you to a certain level of success…but it won’t sustain you, and it often leads to dire outcomes on a personal and even professional level. Bottom line: if you want to be your best in all aspects of your life, you need to cultivate not just physical strength but emotional intelligence. Is that even possible?
Here’s the good news: emotional intelligence can be LEARNED, even if you didn’t grow up with good role models, and even if you’re not sure how to do it. Dr. Emily Anhalt-psychologist to the Silicon Valley tech elite and founder of Coa, the first “gym” for mental fitness-offers a concrete, 7-step plan to develop the emotional strength and
flexibility to cope with all of life’s demands and be your best self. You don’t have to be a tech billionaire to benefit from a strong, resilient emotional state! But if you want to succeed as an employee, as an entrepreneur, and as a human being, these are skills you can’t afford not to cultivate.
