The classic Listening Experience was based on having clients write a set of questions I would ask them in a Listening Experience. I initially thought people who wrote their questions would get the most out of the experience.
Some people didn't want to write questions and asked me to intuit ones to answer. As an intuitive empath, I found this easier if I could connect with the person during a Discovery Call.
Ultimately, this approach proved beneficial; not knowing the questions in advance worked for people (especially those who like to prepare, even overprepare, to deal with life challenges.) The unknown questions allowed for more meaningful and revelatory dialogue with themselves.
Which you choose is personal; we'll explore the options below during the Discovery Call.
Listening Experiences
Classic Experience:
Experience the power of self-directed exploration by crafting your questions. The key is to ask the questions necessary to fully explore your area of focus, even if the answers you find may be challenging. Writing your questions allows you to delve deep into your thoughts and introspection. Take ownership of your Experience and define the specific areas of your life or aspects of yourself that you want to explore. This Experience is ideal for those seeking a personalized and focused journey of self-discovery.
Intuited Experience, facing unknown questions (most popular choice):
Embracing unknown questions inspires insights and unexpected self-discovery. As an intuitive empath, I can connect deeply with most individuals. During this Experience, I will ask questions to provoke fresh perspectives and insights tailored to your unique circumstances and needs. I will ask questions to further your dialogue when I sense an opportunity to delve deeper into your inner knowledge. This experience is perfect for those seeking a dynamic and thought-provoking exploration of self, opening the door to unexpected discoveries and new paths of self-exploration.
The prime reasons to try a Listening Experience
The depth of listening you might experience. Sometimes, even when people surround us, it can feel like nobody hears us. Many people have forgotten how to listen; or may have never learned how to in the first place. And, too frequently, they are more concerned with what they want to say. I will hear you; I am a Listener. Other terms people use to describe what they experience: sounding board, confidante, and caring coach.
There is power in asking ourselves good questions. You may already know the questions you need to ask yourself. If not. I can help you find questions that will be valuable to answer. Every day I ask myself at least one good question. Answering good questions has changed my life for the better. What do you need to ask yourself?
There is a profound value in sharing our inner voice with another person. Talking with ourselves is beneficial, but there is something about saying what we think aloud and having another person hear it. I will be your witness, and as your listener, I will listen intently to your every word.

Listening Experiences - how it started
My growth mission in life is to understand myself by constantly seeking to gain greater levels of self-awareness. As an instructional designer, I understood that I could create learning tools (experiments) to explore new ways to learn and intentionally support deepening my self-understanding. I like to embrace the idea that "I am the Experiment," I use the scientific inquiry method to test and retest my experiments to make them more effective.
One of my favourite experiments was called, 'Tell it to the wall." I would craft a series of questions and ask a friend to sit with me as I faced a wall so we won't engage directly. They asked me my questions and were asked not to say anything. They were asked to listen and witness what I was saying, I found it therapeutic, but I soon forgot what I had spoken.
The next evolution was my friend was encouraged to ask questions to further my dialogue if what I said was vague or they weren't sure if I was aware there was something worthwhile exploring in more detail. Still, I often forgot even though this experience was more engaging.
Things changed when I started to record my voice using a cassette tape recorder (smartphones etc., didn't exist yet.) Immediately my opportunities for growth and greater self-understanding skyrocketed. Reviewing my experiences added the necessary magic to gaining the most out of the experience. Over thirty years, that original experiment has evolved into the Listening Experience I offer today.
