E31: (EVERYONE MUST LISTEN) The difference between Understanding and Agreeing


Listen Later

This week I clarify a KEY difference between Listening with the goal of UNDERSTANDING versus Listening with a goal of PROVING you WRONG.
You can UNDERSTAND someone's experience without 'agreeing' that they are 'right'.
And when we are truly listened to, and feel deeply understood- the affect is a literal RELAXING of our Nervous System aka our Trigger System.
Two relaxed & resourced people are much more likely to have an productive conversation than are two triggered & activated people.
There is GREAT POWER in the ability to hold two different Experiences, as Truth. At the same time. This ability build Trust, Safety, Connection, Intimacy and Closeness.
Just because your experience (of the same event) doesn't match mine, it doesn't make yours 'wrong'. Nor does it make mine 'wrong'.
RIGHT AND WRONG DON'T REALLY EXIST!
