Well Chris, I guess it’s just you and me now. Any lurkers out there, please speak up if I’m wrong!

I was tempted to just shut RC.org down after Billy left, but I realized I still have some projects in mind that would actually fit better here. 

So, I have decided to pivot RC away from intellectual debate towards promoting emotional health. People don’t really need more facts, they need the emotional resilience to be able to cope with the unpleasant but true facts they have already been exposed to (and rejected, in order to protect their constructed identities). 

There is actually a burgeoning industry around social and emotions learning in schools, as well as emotional intelligence at work.  To capitalize on and accelerate that, I am trying to jump start a new holiday: EQnox.  

We already have a team at my office building the “prototype” celebration. We are fortuitously taking BlueEQ training on Sept 12th, so I’m starting discussions with them and other vendors about promoting the holiday as well. 

Chris, if you know of any mediation or mental health organizations that might want to get on board with this, please let me know!

Yours in the pursuit of emotional well-being,

— “Uncle Dr. Ernie”

Celebrate Emotional Intelligence with us on “Fall EQnox” 2019-09-20

Join with us on September 20th, 2019 for “Fall EQnox 2019“, the very first semi-annual celebration of empathy and emotional intelligence.

Improving EQ is increasingly recognized as one of the best ways to increase both personal happiness and societal productivity. We are inviting schools, workplaces, vendors, and non-profits to use this day as an opportunity to promote how they are encouraging emotionally-healthy organizations, lifestyles and relationships.

Below are organizations that have been working to cultivate emotional health. We encourage you to partner with one of them for your celebration.  Please contact us to be added to this list!
