Heart Smart: Emotional Itelligence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798250381321)

Heart Smart: Emotional Intelligence is a compassionate, practical guide to helping families build stronger emotional connections across generations.

In a world that often emphasizes IQ over empathy, this book shines a light on the power of emotional intelligence - the ability to recognize, understand, and manage emotions in ourselves and in others. Through personal story, research-based insight, and real-life family examples, Ruth Kongaika explores how emotional awareness shapes confidence, resilience, communication, and lasting relationships.

Drawing from her own life journey and decades of observation and study, Ruth offers parents and grandparents clear, actionable tools to help children:

- Identify and regulate their emotions
- Develop empathy and social awareness
- Communicate effectively during conflict
- Build resilience in the face of setbacks
- Navigate peer pressure and social media with wisdom
- Strengthen family trust and connection

Heart Smart moves beyond theory and into daily practice, showing how small, consistent changes in the way we respond to emotions can transform homes, relationships, and future generations.

This book is for parents who want to raise emotionally strong children.
For teens who long to understand their feelings rather than be overwhelmed by them.
And for families ready to grow not only smarter in mind - but wiser in heart.
