This 60-minute presentation introduces Emotional Intelligence (EQ), helping participants understand what it is, why it’s valuable in everyday life, and why it’s especially important in marketing. Attendees will leave with practical tips and strategies to begin developing their own EQ.

Carrie Rule is not your typical emotional intelligence coach. Her work didn’t begin in a textbook or through a traditional psychology path; it emerged from lived experience, deep inquiry, and a commitment to understanding what truly helps humans become more self-aware, grounded, and emotionally agile in a rapidly changing world.

Rather than teaching emotional intelligence as a surface-level skill, she focuses on its core foundations: self-awareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, and empathy. Her approach draws from an interdisciplinary background that spans neuroscience, biology, quantum physics, and somatic wisdom, blending science with embodied practice.

Her learning has been shaped by cutting-edge frameworks including Otto Scharmer’s Theory U, 4th-person knowing, and advanced leadership studies through the Harvard Humanistic Leadership Academy. She brings these insights into real-world application through one-on-one coaching, immersive group learning, and equine-facilitated experiences that invite leaders to engage emotion, awareness, and communication in a deeply embodied way.

Working with leaders across industries and continents, she supports individuals and teams who are willing to ask deeper questions about leadership, systems, and human potential. Her work is not about perfection...it’s about practice. Cultivating presence, emotional agility, and the courage to show up more fully human.
