We name the styles that help people feel seen and the ones that turn a simple moment into an argument. • active listening as presence through focus, questions and reflection • passive listening as a drift that happens by season or with certain people • empathetic listening as a gift that still needs boundaries • expansive and solution driven listening that can overwhelm others • external processing versus internal processing in marriage communication • reductive listening as oversimplifying that makes people feel small • insecurity and upbringing as possible roots of defensive listening • teaching kids to use clear compliments instead of cutting remarks let us know underneath the comments. Support the show🎧 Grab your tea, coffee, or water, and come hang out with us.If you’re new here… hey friend! 🤎Get Your Bogg Bag:https://bogg.pxf.io/qzQGDLSoft Hustle Journal + FREE Reset Resources:https://www.womenwhodoitall.org/storeFOLLOW US:IG: @WeAre.WomenInBlack | @DezDoesItAll | @SaySomethin_JoshNote: Some links mentioned in this episode may be affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.
