Finding Clarity in Silence: Michelle Djemil's Guide to Active Listening

Sometimes it's hard to be quiet, but when we do it's amazing what we can hear.
In a world that never seems to stop buzzing, finding a moment of quiet can feel almost impossible. Michelle Djemil knows this all too well and shares her journey towards embracing silence in this episode of 'Towards Recovery'. The episode, titled 'Day 26 - Be Quiet and Listen', is a heartfelt invitation to carve out time for stillness and truly listen—to others and to oneself.
Michelle opens up about her struggles with the constant noise of daily life and how learning to be quiet has transformed her ability to connect with herself and those around her. She recounts an eye-opening experience from a comedy course where she had to listen to her partner without interrupting for two minutes. This exercise taught her the value of active listening, allowing her to fully engage with what the other person was saying rather than planning her next response.
Michelle also shares touching moments from her personal life, like how her son's observation about their noisy home inspired her to create a dedicated quiet space. This episode is a gentle nudge for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the chaos of modern life. Michelle encourages listeners to be intentional about finding moments of quiet, whether it's in nature or a cozy corner at home.
By doing so, you might just uncover new insights about yourself and others that were previously drowned out by the noise. Tune in to 'Day 26 - Be Quiet and Listen' for a refreshing take on the transformative power of silence.
