Listening

Self-explanatory, though I hope to explore the topic in both one-on-one and in group settings

Supportivelistening differs from other types of listening (e.g., listening during chit-chat or aconflict, informational listening) because it requires that the support listener demon-strate emotional involvement and attunement while attending to, interpreting, andresponding to the emotions of the support seeker—a complex and challenging task.

Listening empathetically is nice to do because it makes people feel good, and it deepens relationships. But listening is good for you anyway, even if you don’t care about niceness or feeling good. If you want to get your way, you’ll have to bring people over to your side, unless you have enough power to stably coerce them.

What we can offer after we leave our full-time, big-time jobs is actually a lot, as I found in my chat with our friend @kate_wolfson, a brand strategist and consultant, who’s now freelance after her tenure at Goop. Her advice is practical in the best ways, right down to the book rec that’ll keep creative minds sharp and inspired, and a lesson that’s universal and essential in work and in life. If you missed our conversation, be sure to check the link in bio, and subscribe for lots more (and lots more to come!). xH
