The Freedom of Being Misunderstood
À propos de ce podcast
Welcome to Masterful Listening, the world's first super rad listening school.
I'm Svetlana, your host.
Isn't it wild that we're taught how to read, write, and speak, but nobody ever teaches us how to listen?
When was the last time you went to listening school?
Exactly.
Well, when is now. This is it!
Every episode of Masterful Listening is part story, part lesson, part listening practice. I teach by doing what I do best: telling stories, asking great questions, and helping you hear what you've been missing all along.
I'm an executive coach, facilitator, writer, and artist and I've designed this show to be an interactive experience, not just something you have on in the background. Expect guest appearances, meditations, coaching lessons, daily mantras and comedy specials because who doesn't like to laugh and have some fun?
I believe that the quality of our listening determines the quality of your life and that masterful listening is the ultimate love affair with life.
When we learn to truly listen to ourselves, to others, and to the world, life gets a lot more interesting.
See you in class!
