Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I want people to walk away from talking to me feeling like I really got it
- When a feeling takes me over I become it completely
- The instant a feeling hits I’m already inside it, reacting before I’ve had a single second to choose
- I can repeat back someone’s words fine, but I want to actually get to what they mean underneath
- Noting has become second nature and now I’m curious about the one doing the noticing itself
