In today’s fast-paced world, genuine listening has become a lost art. Too often, we find ourselves caught up in waiting for our turn to speak rather than truly hearing the other person. In this episode, I explore the transformative power of intentional listening—listening not just with our ears, but with our hearts.

Join me as I share personal insights and experiences, along with three practical tips to improve your listening skills. Learn how to ground yourself in the moment, practice the power of the pause, and truly connect with those around you. Plus, we’ll dive into a deeper form of listening, inspired by wisdom from Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda, and how this practice can help you feel the thoughts behind the words.

Discover how becoming a better listener can strengthen relationships, foster deeper connections, and even help you navigate misunderstandings with grace and compassion.

In this episode of The Joyful Journey, Anita shares a reading from her book Whispers of the Soul and dives into a powerful discussion sparked by a conversation with a former client who challenged the idea of asking oneself, "What do I really want?" This client believed that following personal desires is driven by ego and inherently selfish.

Anita unpacks this inner conflict, exploring the distinction between ego-driven desires and guidance from the higher self, which speaks from love and aligns with the greater good. Listeners will learn how to decipher between these two voices, uncover the deeper "why" behind their desires, and shift from fear-based thinking to making decisions that serve not only their highest good, but the highest and greatest good for all.

In today’s episode of the Joyful Journey, I share an intimate chapter from my life (and my book) revealing the painful memories of my turbulent childhood.
