Show Notes
In this episode, we're exploring our element of awe alongside the fifth aspect of deep listening which is "allowing." When it comes to listening, allowing reminds us that we can't be pressured into speaking our truth. We must be allowed to do so. We can do this for ourselves and for other by creating the space that feels safe, spacious, and unhurried. We'll get into some key obstacles that come with this and some simple steps to practice this aspect of "allowing."
