About this listen
In this episode, Sylvia Plester-Silk, RSW, reveals the powerful—but often forgotten—step that can transform every emotional interaction: checking in with yourself before you respond.
So many of us rush to offer solutions, advice, or comforting words… yet that’s rarely what someone truly needs. Sylvia explores why we fall into this pattern and how a simple pause can deepen connection, prevent overwhelm, and create more meaningful support.
You’ll hear about:
- Why listening without fixing changes everything
- How self-awareness improves emotional communication
- The surprising impact of unwanted advice
- The role of clear, gentle requests in getting your needs met
This episode is filled with relatable stories and simple shifts that help you show up with compassion, clarity, and confidence.
