#06 Emotional vs. Intellectual Communication: A Critical Skill Every Dad Needs
-
Narrated by:
-
By:
Sam and Cole explore one of the most crucial yet overlooked parenting skills: emotional communication. Cole, an expert in grief recovery, explains why most dads default to intellectual responses when their kids and spouses desperately need emotional validation.
What You'll Learn:
- The difference between emotional and intellectual communication - and why most dads miss emotional cues entirely
- Real examples of how intellectual responses leave family members feeling unheard
- Two practical techniques: nonverbal paraphrasing and emotional paraphrasing
- The hidden cost of always "fixing" instead of listening
Your Challenge: Practice identifying whether communications are emotional or intellectual "fastballs vs. curveballs." Before offering solutions, ask: does this person need to feel heard first?
Emotional communication is a practical skill that can save marriages, strengthen father-child bonds, and raise emotionally healthy kids.
Perfect for dads who excel at logic and problem-solving but struggle with the emotional side of parenting and marriage.
