Leaning into Our Collective Humanity through Empathetic Listening

Partnering with colleagues, students, and community members is essential when working to shape a culture of dignity. To do so, we need skills that allow us to properly lean into our collective humanity with intention and, thus, listen empathetically. Unlearning the things that hinder us from empathizing with one another is fundamental to honoring the humanity of ourselves and others. This experience explores how utilizing active listening skills yields profound outcomes when it comes to the quality of our personal and collective relationships.
