EI/EQ AND LEADERSHIP WITH THERESA REED | EP39

In this episode, we discuss the crucial role emotional intelligence (EI) plays in the journey of becoming a CRNA. We explore what EI really means—understanding and managing your emotions and those of others—and why it’s essential in both the classroom and clinical settings. We unpack how skills like self-awareness, communication, and stress management directly impact your performance, especially during high-stakes situations. You’ll hear how EI can be developed through self-assessment, mentorship, and even simulation training. We also explore real-world strategies for handling difficult preceptors, building trust with OR staff, and maintaining your emotional resilience over the long haul. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed in clinicals or doubted your confidence under pressure, this episode is for you. Stick around to the end to learn a surprising communication trick that can defuse tension and help you earn trust—even in the most high-stress OR moments.
