Active listening is the name of the game in this episode, and let me tell you, it's a skill that’s more crucial than ever in our distraction-filled lives!

Nkechi and Gaby dive deep into what it really means to listen, not just to respond, but to genuinely understand what someone is saying. They share some fun anecdotes, including a quirky story about a "talking stick" that reminds us how important it is to let others finish their thoughts before jumping in.

Seriously, have you ever found yourself waiting for your turn to speak instead of truly hearing the other person? You're not alone!

Join us for a lively chat that’ll have you questioning your own listening habits and inspire you to be a better communicator. So grab your headphones, kick back, and let’s get this listening party started!
