Are You a Bad Listener?

In her new book Deep Listening: Transform Your Relationships with Family, Friends, and Foes, she explores how we can tune out the noise and truly tune into each other at work, at home, and across divides. 📱 Follow The Next Big Idea Daily on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen 📩 Want more bite-sized insights from the best new nonfiction delivered straight to your inbox?
