📢 Thrilled to share my live news interview experience, where I dove into the incredible benefits of journals for keeping families united during a bustling school year! 📚✨ From heartfelt conversations to treasured moments, these journals work like magic. ✍️🌟 Let's make this school year extra special for our loved ones! 📖👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Active 👂 (listening) looks like:

Resisting the urge to interrupt (so you disagree its okay. Just let them finish their incorrect statement and correct them when its your turn to speak)...giving eye contact (this communicates that you are present in the conversation and are interested in what they have to say) ...and being mindful of your non-verbal cues (rolling of the eyes or grunting from annoyance).

Anyone can lack impulse control and lean into how good it feels to check someone just because you can. That's not strength. Having the restraint and the dignity to want to check them, but practicing the self-control needed to respond in a more thoughtful manner, all while still being authentic and addressing the issue is the secret sauce. Journaling is a surefire way to enhance this communication skill. ask me how!.

Morning friends! Love and gratitude require reciprocity and intention. To be the best version of yourself in your friendships 👉🏾 Be sure to give as much as you take. Are you that one friend who calls your friend to talk, and when they pick up, you ask what you are doing? they respond that they just dozed off. You proceed to begin conversing. While your friend loves you and y'all may go way back, this communicates that you may not value their space or boundaries at times. Instead, when you call your friend in the middle of the night when most people are asleep, and she mentions that she was just about to doze off..
👉🏾ask her if she prefers you to call back tomorrow. Consider her enough to give her the option to continue with the call. This is just one example, but it is a great thing to reflect on how much friends consider their besties (or how they are considering you) Journaling can be a great way of self-reflection and personal growth for those looking to become the best version of themselves for themselves as well as others. 😌☝🏾
