Show Notes

It sounds overly simple, but hear why the question, How are you feeling? is so key in interactions like doctor-patient ones, but really, all of our relatinoships. An open-ended question like that can truly keep the door open on validating others' emotions, avoiding unintentionally suggesting that the way someone is feeling is not normative.  Dr. Chris Cipriano is an expert in social and emotional learning and gives this tip as well as several others, to help me (and maybe you!) in every day interactions.
