The Thought That Counts - Podcasts on Emotional Intelligence from Ei4Change

Robin Hills created Ei4Change (Emotional Intelligence 4 Change) and originally developed these bite-sized segments for Bolton FM, his local radio station in the UK, where they aired on the Breakfast Show and Lunchtime Show. The format carried over perfectly to podcasting: each episode contains five short thoughts, each under two minutes, centered on emotional intelligence, resilience, and the cognitive biases that trip people up in everyday decisions. The brevity is the point. Hills packs a single actionable idea into each segment, covering topics like confirmation bias, the Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy, priming, confabulation, and hindsight bias, all explained in plain language with practical examples. The show updates bimonthly and has built a steady archive over the years. The format makes it genuinely different from the typical hour-long interview podcast. You can listen to an entire episode in under ten minutes and walk away with something specific to think about during your day. Hills brings a UK-based perspective that provides a nice contrast to the predominantly American emotional intelligence podcast space, and his background in organizational change gives the content a practical, workplace-oriented slant. This is an excellent podcast for people who want consistent, low-commitment exposure to emotional intelligence concepts without having to block out a significant chunk of time. The short segments also make it easy to share individual thoughts with colleagues or teams.
