Deep listening happens when we shift the point of focus away from ourselves and onto the other, not just with the goal of understanding the other’s WORDS but with the intention of getting their WORLD.
The result is a deeper sense of connection, an openness to be with other worldviews and perspectives and an ability to recognise that we’re all just humans trying our best to exist in this strange world.
As debates over vaccination, politics, gender, and identity politics split families apart, it becomes more and more apparent that much of our human suffering is rooted in a lack of understanding and empathy. (Re-)Learning to truly listen to each other is the much needed medicine.
Participants will walk away with a deeper sense of connection, an openness to be with other worldviews and perspectives and a new set of tools to cultivate empathy and compassion through the art of listening.
Pauline’s work is driven by one seemingly simple question: Why?
After a career as a content strategist in a large tech corporation and years of trying to wrap her head around the Whys of regulations and processes in the German public sector, she became interested in the more What are the nuanced and subtle Whys underneath the patterns of human interaction.
That curiosity combined with a fascination for the mechanisms of conflict has led her to become a mediator and Authentic Relating facilitator. She now guides couples, groups and individuals through times of transformation, dedicated to facilitate meaningful and lasting change.
