#229: Communicating with Intention

from Dental Hygiene Student Podcast with The Happy Flosser RDH · host Billie Lunt RDH MSDH

This conversation left me considering so much of how I speak and listen to others. As a dental hygienist, we spend so much of our time communicating with others. Sometimes we may miss the most impactful component of communication - listening and confirming that we understand. This conversation with Julie Leparri was truly enjoyable and inspired me to reconsider how I communicate with others. She is a expert mentor in so many aspects of communication and body language - I encourage you to listen with the intention of understanding her advice.I am looking forward to her book release later this fall. We chat about many concepts she covers in the book as it is being developed. Her insight and knowledge has inspired me to be a better communicator and challenge some of my own bad habits when working with others.
