Our favorite quotable moments:

"If you're looking for a boss that staff think back on and smile versus a boss that puts a pit in your stomach and makes you break into a cold sweat, it's a boss who has emotional intelligence." - Kaitlin Carmichael

"So emotional intelligence is our skill and ability to understand our own emotional experiences. So what we're feeling as we're feeling it, which is a key part of that self-awareness piece. Our ability to manage what we're feeling, and then also our ability at noticing and, and understanding the emotional experiences of others and then using all of that information to have better, more healthy, productive relationships with other people." - Kaitlin Carmichael

"...self-reflection is so humbling. You have to be able to recognize where you misstepped and, and sometimes that means verbally recognizing it to the folks on the other side. And that can be really hard too because it's one thing to recognize it to yourself and be like, I f****d up. Whoops… And it's another thing to recognize that in front of an audience." - Megan Scollay-Casillas
