Spring is finally here—and with it comes a fresh invitation to hit the reset button. You’ve made it through winter (whatever your version of winter looked like), and now it’s time to step into something new.
What do you do when life knocks you down? If you’re Paige Bueckers, you get back up. Again. And again. And then you come back stronger, faster, and more focused than ever before.
We’ve all been there… A friend or colleague needs to vent.
You listen, you empathize, you say things like:
“Wow, that sounds really frustrating.”
“I can see how you’d be upset.”
“If that happened to me, I’d be pretty irritated too.” That’s active listening—and it’s powerful.
