Ever felt like your conversations were missing a deeper connection? I sure did, until a surprising twist at a singles retreat taught me the profound impact of active listening and the five love languages. Discover how this unexpected lesson helped me bond with my son through our shared love language of acts of service. By setting distractions aside and truly being present, I learned to communicate in a way that strengthened not just my personal relationships, but my professional ones too.

Join me as we unpack the principles of Master Resiliency training and the transformative power of active, constructive responding (ACR). We’ll explore how to avoid derailing positive interactions by steering clear of message hijacking, pessimism, and outright neglect. Using the analogy of treating good news like a precious gift, I’ll share practical strategies for enhancing meaningful connections both at home and at work. You’ll hear insightful stories from my life as a single parent and professional, offering you the tools to become a better listener and create more resilient relationships.
