Emotional intelligence, which is the capacity to understand and control our emotions, as well as being sensitive to others' feelings, nurtures our relationships and boosts our empathy. With higher emotional intelligence, you're also better equipped to grasp and empathize with the emotions of others, fostering deeper, more fulfilling relationships. Here's how my emotional intelligence has grown since I've gotten older:1. I feel more compassion for othersAs I age, I've softened ... and not just around my belly. I'm able to positively reappraise negative experiences, like getting stuck in traffic in an Uber (interpretation: great chance to meditate).

The Bible, “The Selected Works of Audre Lorde,” edited and with an introduction by Roxane Gay, and “The Tongue — A Creative Force” by Charles Capps. I’m a believer in God’s word so learning how to apply that was really inspiring and impactful for me. I was really moved by “The Creative Act” because I think Rick Rubin has experienced so much in life. I learned from a musician friend of mine that so many things can contribute to your musical/creative vocabulary, even nature. And after that, “The Autobiography of Malcolm X” and “The Mastery of Love” by Don Miguel Ruiz and Janet Mills.

I had watched a movie about Virginia Woolf and her lesbian lover, and I thought, Ooh, I need to read this one. Throughout her entire novel “Written on the Body,” you never know if the main protagonist is a woman or a man. The protagonist of that book has many different kinds of lovers, and it’s just a mind-opening piece of literature. You mention in your memoir that you gave up reading as a child for a time. Then of course I started reading again in my 20s and I was lit on fire by it.
