You know what’s harder than it looks? Listening. Being present and tuning into someone while they share their heart is a privilege, but let’s be honest: sometimes it feels like a chore (moms of small kids can relate!). Other times, listening can pump us full of fear or make us freeze, because we’re not quite sure how to handle the information that’s been handed to us. But one thing’s for sure: listening matters, because listening is how we learn how to meet the needs of the people around us. Nancy’s good friend, QVC host Shawn Killinger is here today to tackle all things listening. As a former news anchor and current on-air talent at QVC, not to mention a wife and mom, Shawn’s a master at opening her heart and receiving what others have to say, because at work and at home, she’s had to practice how to hand the spotlight over to someone else. Shawn shares practical tips you can put in your toolkit today to be a better listener (tip: always stay curious!) and above all, why doing the work to listen more is 100% worth it.
