In this episode of the Coaching Conversations podcast, I have the opportunity to sit down with TLC 2024 keynote speaker, Kate Murphy.
Kate is the acclaimed author of You're Not Listening: What You're Missing and Why It Matters, easily the best book on listening I have ever read. During our conversation we speak about the nuances of effective communication, exploring why listening is more than just hearing words—it's about understanding another person's story.
We discuss the importance of asking the right questions, the power of analogies, and how genuine listening can transform relationships in a time of increasing polarization. Kate shares her journey of writing the book, emphasizing the role of innovation and creativity in her work. We also touch on practical advice for becoming a better listener, whether in personal relationships or professional coaching.
You'll discover why listening is a selfless act that paradoxically leads to better connections, how to avoid common pitfalls like letting ego or fear dominate conversations, and why everyone can be interesting if you ask the right questions.
Tune in for a conversation that will inspire you to hone your listening skills and deepen your interactions with others.
