This week we're joined by researcher (and fellow Single Minded listener) Zoe Callis to talk about emotional intelligence (EQ) and the role it plays in romantic relationships. This episode covers: 

• What's the difference between IQ and EQ?
• What are the qualities of someone with high EQ vs low EQ?
• Is it possible to improve your EQ?
• Do we rank high IQ and high EQ as attractive qualities?
