REUNITED and it feels so good.  We are back after a summer break and there's LOTS to catch up on!  Appropriately the definition of reunion is:  act or process of being brought together again as a unified whole.  We are feeling whole again.  Enjoy this episode where we discuss everything from clarity of decisions to not having to earn a voice (we already have one).

Active Listening Episode

We delve into the topic of active listening.  How and why it matters, and btw YOU MATTER, a structured way to participate in active listening.  

Definition: the imparting or exchanging information by speaking, writing, or using some other medium.  

Active listening requires that you offer undivided attention and respond verbally and nonverbally in a way that conveys entire interest and respect,” says Dr. Kushnick. “It requires the listener to access a level of self-awareness that precludes all forms of bias, prejudice, and pre-assumption from interfering with an intention to hear the entirety of the message and reflect that the speaker's message was received as it was communicated.”

Topic ideas, do you have a question for us??? We love email [email protected]!  Follow, like and share that really helps us spread the message to anyone that may benefit today!!! XO - Mark, Lynn & Vikki
