Have you ever poured your heart out, only to feel like your words evaporated into thin air? Welcome to The Conscious Couples Podcast with your hosts and real-life couple Emilia Smith and Alan Lazaros. They share their very own moments of disconnect and breakthroughs in communication. Through candid conversations, they unravel the delicate threads of feeling unheard in relationships and present you with tools to express yourself and ensure you're being heard. Together, they probe into the nuances of active listening, setting boundaries, and embracing a growth mindset. The art of being listened to is not about talking louder or more persuasively but about creating a space where both partners can speak and listen with empathy and openness. It's about transforming dialogues to strengthen relationship bonds, ensuring everyone feels acknowledged and understood.
