Emotional Intelligence

I went into this audiobook expecting yet another self-help book brimming with clichés, but Kevin Moore delivered a refreshingly blunt guide that actually sticks. Dave Wright’s narration is the secret weapon here—his tone is warm yet incisive, like a mentor who doesn’t sugarcoat the hard truths. Wright’s pacing is brisk, which works well for a book that’s under two hours; there’s no meandering or filler, just lean, impactful advice. My only gripe is that some sections feel a bit too concise, like Moore could’ve expanded on certain strategies with real-world examples. For instance, his tips on handling criticism at work are spot-on, but I wanted more depth on *why* some emotional pitfalls are so hard to avoid. Still, the production is clean, with no distracting background noise, and the audio quality pairs perfectly with Wright’s natural delivery. If you’re tired of books that tell you to ‘just breathe’ and actually want tools to change how you respond to stress, frustration, or even anger, this is a solid choice. It’s not groundbreaking, but it’s effective—and that’s rare in this genre.
