A way to improve your relationships – The gift of deep listening

Sticky Post By On 2017-04-11 With No Comments

This insight has impacted my life, and relationships with others greatly over the last year or so.

At the end of each year I love to reflect back to the past 12 months. With Christmas and New Year happening this period is the closest to my heart.

We all have those moments of insights where we see life differently. Something in our perception changes, and we look at things from a new perspective. Those can be life-changing moments. Read more
