Listen So People Think Better
You think you're a good listener. Almost everyone does — it's the one skill we never doubt. But most of what we call listening is just waiting for our turn, and the quality of your attention sets a ceiling on how clearly the person in front of you can think. In a study of real consultations, doctors interrupted patients after a median of 11 seconds. We all run that reflex, all day. Across seven short lessons you'll learn the specific moves that raise the ceiling instead of capping it: catching the urge to make it about you, holding the answer that wants to leap out, reflecting instead of redirecting, and asking the one question that removes the wall someone is stuck behind. You'll walk away with the Thinking-Partner Protocol — a short, re-runnable practice built for one real relationship, so the people around you think better because you were there.
