Voice Studio 01: 1 Question that Honors the Inner Experience of the Other Person

04/06/17 • 7 min

This Voice Studio episode is the first "after the interview" kind of episode from the Voice of Influence podcast. In episode 01, we heard some great insights from psychologist and speaker, Espen Klausen, Ph.D. that are sure to help us connect with other people and guide them to lightbulb moments of experiential learning. In the Voice Studio today, Andrea Joy Wenburg offers one question that will help you honor the inner experience of another person.

When we honor the inner experience of the other person, we suspend our own desire to make that person happy or change their mind about something so we can truly understand them and connect with their inner experience. And connecting makes us more attuned to what next step that person is truly ready to take so we can speak to where they are, rather than expecting them to meet us where we are.
