LISTENING WITH DEPTH DEMANDS PATIENCE, OPENNESS, AND A GENUINE PURSUIT OF UNDERSTANDING, REFLECTING THE VERY BEST OF WHO WE ARE. - Amanda Sharp


Ever catch yourself “listening” just to prove a point or relate it back to your own story?In this episode, we’re getting real about one of the hardest skills in human connection—listening without making it about ourselves.


Amanda and Christy dive deep into why genuine listening demands patience, humility, and emotional safety—and how our need to fix, defend, or relate often comes from ego, fear, or unresolved tension in the relationship.


They unpack:The three types of listening—and why only one leads to real growth.


How unspoken conflict or judgment blocks authentic connection.


Why we feel the urge to fix others (and what that reveals about us).


How true listening mirrors how we listen to God—quietly, openly, without agenda.


This episode will challenge how you communicate, love, and lead.If you’re ready to strengthen your relationships, create emotional safety, and become a person who truly hears others… this one’s for you.


Reflection prompts at the end help you turn insight into practice.
