Want to improve your communication skills, make a stronger impact on the lives of the people around you, and develop empathy and understanding of others' perspectives? The best skill you can develop to achieve all that is listening.You're Not Listening by Kate Murphy is one of the most influential books I read in 2024, now I'm revisiting it to share the big ideas that changed the way I think and interact with others. In fact, it's so relevant and powerful, I couldn't fit it into one episode, so we're breaking it into 2 parts.This week we discuss What Listening Is, How to Make Anyone Interesting, Thoughtful Listening, Keep Your Mind on the Conversation, and Listening to Opposing Views. Grab a copy of the book yourself or find a copy at your local library.Related Zoo-notables: I Never Thought of It That WayAtlas of the Heart by Brené Brown
