In this episode, I dive into why true communication is about more than just words. I share a personal story of how miscommunication can turn collaboration into conflict — and how I learned that listening is often more powerful than speaking. We’ll explore the barriers that get in our way, from assumptions to ego, and the simple practices that transform conversations. Most importantly, I’ll talk about the role of self-communication — because how we speak to ourselves shapes every relationship we have. This episode is all about presence, connection, and creating healthier, more meaningful relationships through better communication.
