Today's Passionate Relationship Principle (PRP): Good listening is a prerequisite to good communication. 

o   In a previous session we talked about the 4 types of listening:

  • Pretend Listening (pretending your listening and paying attention)

  • Listening (paying attention and being able to get the gist of what your partner is saying)

  • Active Listening (following along with what your partner is saying and being ask appropriate questions)

  • Empathic Listening (being aware of your partner’s emotions)

During today’s teleconference, we’ll focus on Pretend Listening and the hidden treasures that this level of communication has for your relationship. 

We’ll be discussing this in the teleconference today, Tuesday, 9/22/2015 from 12pm-12:30pm (EST).  An audio recording will be made of the conference call.
