The Secret to Being Heard: Leveling Up Your Listening

Before the holidays sweep us into their familiar rush, take an hour to slow down and rediscover what it means to truly connect.
This warm, interactive session explores the art and science of listening—how genuine attention can transform both sides of a conversation.

At Kai, we believe that connection heals. Grounded in decades of positive-psychology and communication research, this session turns evidence into experience, showing how presence, understanding, and empathy can rebuild the bridges that life’s noise wears down.

What You’ll Experience

• A guided exploration of what it feels like to be fully heard and to offer that gift to another person.
• Simple, evidence-based practices to deepen your listening and empathy skills.
• Real-time reflection and discussion about how authentic presence changes communication and connection.
• A practical habit you can bring into everyday life—small shifts with big relational impact.

Who It’s For
Anyone who wants calmer, more meaningful conversations—with friends, family, partners, or colleagues. No prior background needed—just curiosity, kindness, and a willingness to experiment.
