Active listening can transform your relationships. In this podcast, we explore why listening to understand—not just to reply—matters so much. Quoting David W. Augsburger, 'Being heard is so close to being loved that for the average person, they are almost indistinguishable,' we unpack what active listening truly means, how it differs from passive hearing, and the deep trust and connection it fosters. We'll share personal stories, discuss common barriers like distractions or preconceptions, and offer practical tips to sharpen your listening skills. Join us to elevate your communication and relationships.
