As you prepare for the upcoming week, think about the power of listening. Give those around you your full attention and avoid distractions. Active listening builds trust and connection. It helps the listener gain more in-depth knowledge and confidently identify problems to come up with solutions. It also makes people feel heard, which translates to being valued. Think about a time when you felt heard and valued. Now think about being the reason others feel this way. Be present this week, next week, and every week after. #activelistening #connection #bepresent #mentalhealth
