Wow, I’m blown away by this idea. I can’t wait to sign up to become a trained Listening Artist, as listening is something I naturally do a lot of. My experience being really listened to is that a good listener, a kind listener, hears things in my story and sees things in myself that I had been blind to. One friend said, “Your mother has a special tone that she reserves just for you.” Feeling seen like that is so deeply healing for me.

This is sooo true, Phyllis!! Thank you for the gift of listening you give to others.
