Manage episode 398183114 series 3010982
This week, Jaimie and Chris give it another go at the topic of communication. After a rough summer involving PTSD, inpatient, and retirement, Jaimie and Chris have learned new habits to help them understand each other better. In this episode they will share how to actively listen to your partner. Here is the framework to their new listening habit:
1. One speaker, one listener
2. Listener allows the speaker to talk
3. Listener repeats what they heard the speaker say
4. Listener empathizes by identifying the emotion they hear the speaker feeling
5. Speaker affirms or corrects what the Listener heard
6. Listener asks the speaker if they have anything more to add
7. If Speaker has more to add, go back to step 1... OR
8. Switch rolls and start back at step 1.
