As providers, we receive a wealth of information from our clients: what works, what doesn't, their concerns, and insecurities. Yet, amidst this flood of information, one crucial element often overlooked is listening. When clients share with us, they reveal their expectations, concerns, insecurities, and trust. So, when a client speaks, ask yourself: Are you listening?
