The Power of Listening as a Parent

In a noisy world where we often add to the din, it's worth remembering the ancient saying 'two ears, one mouth.' Award-winning psychologist Dr. Stuart Friedman emphasizes the importance of listening with leadership skills to our children to understand their needs. By truly paying attention with dedication and compassion, we can uncover what's inside their hearts and minds and become better leaders in our families.
