Ep #29: From Hear to Here
From Hear to Here - Listening With Intention
In our fast-paced world, one of the most challenging things is slowing down. That especially applies to communication. We know how important good communication is, yet we often skimp on it without realizing it. We think we know what the other person has to say, we want them to hurry up, and we want to get things done now! Join me in this episode of The Healthy Leader Podcast as I share how you can immediately begin using what you are hearing to intentionally create deeper connections with others (and within yourself) even before you respond verbally.
