70. What's Essential: Greg on The Absolute Hell of Being Misunderstood

Listen Later

One of the most basic human needs is to be understood.

When we are misunderstood, we feel alone, unvalued, and betrayed. 

None of us wishes to feel this way, and no one wants to make others feel this way. So why is there so much misunderstanding in our relationships?

Join me for an important discussion on how to improve every relationship, personal and professional, through deep communication and emphatic listening.
