But this book shifted my perspective, showing me it’s actually a skill I can learn. The chapter on public speaking was especially encouraging, and it made me think, “Maybe I can do this.” The tips on listening and empathy were also incredibly practical—I’ve already started using them in daily conversations.

You know that moment when you're nodding along in a conversation but not really hearing a word? This book totally called me out on that - in the best way possible! The practical exercises for active listening literally changed how I handle morning meetings with my team. While some of the conflict resolution scenarios felt a bit too workplace-focused, the overall techniques are really adaptable. I particularly appreciated the reflecting moments scattered throughout - they gave me time to process what I was learning. This is not just another communication book - this one actually sticks with you because it makes you practice what it preaches. It made me realize I was a way worse listener than I thought, but now I catch myself using these techniques without even thinking about it.

In today's world, it can be very difficult to learn what meaningful conversation looks like. We are all so busy that we are usually trying to get our point across but not exactly listening to what the other person is saying. I see this all the time at work. Pretty much just waiting for the other person to stop talking so we can say what we want. What I have been working on recently is how to just listen more. And not just listen but listen to the underlying messages in what they are saying too. Why are they saying what they are saying? This book lays out the approach to take to start learning how to not only be an effective listener but also be an effective communicator. Make sure that what you are saying is what you mean. Don't just talk to talk, but put thought into what you are saying and make sure what you are saying is of value.
