How To Get Heard In Your Relationships: The Power Of Active Listening “There is nothing worse than not feeling heard. You’ve probably encountered a bad listener at a party, at work, or even in your personal life.

Partners aren’t always conscious of their tendency to plan what they are going to say next.”

Perhaps you have endured too many fights and accusations that you don’t listen anymore. There are steps you can take to regain your ability and desire to listen to your spouse.”
