138 Using Your Conversations Wisely - with Monique R. Shields
How do high-achievers foster truly reciprocal friendships? Many of us don’t believe they exist because of how often we are doing most of the giving. This episode is your “how to" guide for engaging in high-quality friendships that nurture your own growth.
This is a conversation between Kemi and Monique R. Shields. Monique is an executive coach for women in the C suite, founders, entrepreneurs and women of color in academic medicine and public health.
Listen in as they have an open discussion about intentional conversations that cultivate true tangible support, celebration and cheerleading within their friendship - where both friends feel not only free but also encouraged to celebrate each other's victories in spontaneous, authentic moments.
Highlights from this episode:
- The importance of intentional and high-quality conversations
- Three types of intentional discussions that contribute to the strength of friendship bonds
- The significance of sharing origin stories
- The roles of self-awareness, communication, and genuine enthusiasm
- The prerequisite of self-work for authentic connections
