“I had all of the things and yet, I was at this point where I didn't want to live.” I believe this is one of the most important episodes of Stay Grounded I’ve ever recorded. Suicide is a big killer among men my age and there’s a common thread - we don’t know how to talk about depression or feelings of isolation, or how to ask for help and support during dark times. When I first met Chris Plough, I was deeply moved by his depth of empathy, care, and sensitivity. This is a man who’s experienced suicide from both sides. Not only has he been close to taking his own life - the first time at age just 16 - but he lost both his parents in a homicide-suicide. In this vulnerable conversation, Chris shares the emotions involved and what it actually feels like to have suicidal tendencies. He also explains the tangible steps we can all take to help someone transform their suicidal thoughts into something beautiful. “Empathetic witness is just being able to be present with somebody and allow them to share what they're going through and care without judgment.” Suicide is a taboo, and it shouldn’t be. Fortunately, Chris found support from an empathetic friend, which helped to kick-start a journey of compassion and unconditional self-love. Now we can all learn from his experiences - so we’re better positioned to support people who need it… because no one is alone. In this beautiful episode, Chris and I explore: What is self-love? The role of patience in your self-love journey. The story of the list and how it can prevent suicide attempts. How to be an empathetic listener. The three isolation creators.How to share suicidal thoughts to help a listener receive them. The difference between conditional and unconditional love.How best to respond if you can’t be an empathetic listener when someone asks.Using self-care to honor yourself and avoid dark places. How to dismantle the cages we put ourselves in. What your vulnerability can invite in others. And more…Chris is on a mission to ‘Liberate Humanity’. He’s doing this through his work at AdventureX where he creates experiences that provide space and freedom for people. He’s also a sought-after speaker who makes space to be an empathetic witness for people who need it. “When you're feeling those things in that darkness - shame, guilt, not wanting to burden others - those create this isolation that makes you believe you're actually alone.” How to contact Check out Chris’ work at https://chrisplough.comExplore Chris’ role as an empathetic witness - chrisplough.com/I-am-listeningWe thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

Are you feeling too distracted to pay attention? Does listening make your brain hurt? In a world full of noise and distraction - listening is the biggest leadership hack in today’s world. In this episode we crack the code on how to deeply listen, how to listen to what is unsaid, and the tons of specific hacks and tactics you can use to take your listening to the next level with our guest Oscar Trimboli.Oscar Trimboli is on a quest to create 100 million Deep Listeners in the world. He is an author, Host of the Apple Award winning podcast--Deep Listening and a sought-after keynote speaker. He consults for organizations including Cisco, Google, HSBC, and many others. He is the author of the best selling works Breakthroughs: How to confront assumptions and Deep Listening: Impact Beyond Words.If you can listen, you can change the worldThe mission of creating 100 million listeners If you can achieve your goal in your lifetime it’s not ambitious enoughWe are struggling as individuals and the world is struggling - we are distracted, we can’t focus, we are overwhelmed86% of people struggle with distraction todayWe spent the 20th-century learning how to speak, the leadership hack for the 21st century is learning how to listenThe more senior you are, the more you lead, the more time you spend listeningLess than 2% of people have been trained how to listenHow do you teach your kids how to listen? How do you teach your employees how to listen?We listen in 2 dimensions - we listen in black and white right now - but we can listen in more colors, and we can listen more deeply.Listen to someone on TV who you fiercely disagree with. What’s the difference between hearing vs listening? What assumptions and prejudices do you hold?How do you become aware of your listening blind spots?Spend 30 minutes listening to someone who you fiercely disagree with, and you will start to really understand your listening blind spots.We spend a huge chunk of our lives screaming to be noticed. Hearing = here sounds. Listening = make sense of what you hear. The difference between hearing and listening is the action you take. Deep listening is helping the person who is speaking make sense of what they’re saying Three key lessons from neuroscience about listeningWe can listen so much faster than we can speak, it creates a massive opportunity for us to get distractedYou must be an “empty vessel” to focus on someone else and actually listen to them 3 Quick tips to center yourself in a conversationBefore you even think about listening to the speaker, you have to be ready to listen. When somebody says something, treat silence at the end of what they say like it’s another word. 3 Phrases to continue any conversationIn our rush to fill the silence, we miss out on quite a lot. When you use phrases like “tell me more” you give someone the opportunity to align their thoughts more clearly, think through the idea, and figure out the most important themes and ideas to shine through in the conversation. How many breakthroughs are you missing in your organization just because you’re not listening? 5 Levels of Listening“You’ve heard something in 25 minutes that we couldn’t hear in 3 months"A powerful question that can solve insurmountable business problems: Who are you not listening to right now?Sometimes the people you really need to listen to aren’t in the room. The only way to get someone to see the gap between where they are today and where they want to be tomorrow is by ASKING THEM A QUESTION, not by telling them. The magic happens when you put your attention on other people instead of just putting it on yourself.If the question if about YOU and YOUR understanding, it’s not as powerful as a question helping THEM improve THEIR understanding. Homework: Listen to something you deeply disagree with for 30 minutes.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The real estate business is constantly evolving, and it’s critical to keep learning. We also need to recognize the value of creating a bond with our clients. How do we remain high-performing? How do soft skills impact our sales? What is our role in mediating information? In this episode, Robyn Burdett shares how we can improve our performance and client relationships in real estate.     Three Things We Learned Finding your whyTo stay excited about real estate, we need to have a vision bigger than ourselves and a reason for doing what we do. Our reasons can be personal or professional, as long as they are important to us. Once we know what we are doing it for, we become mentally invested, and it’s easier to maintain high performance. How to sell through listeningWe are not typically taught how to understand body language and work with different personality types. Learn to listen and form a bond with people in order to make successful sales. Share the right informationOur relationship with clients has changed with increased access to information through the internet. There is too much information out there for people to focus on, or to know what works and what doesn’t. We used to be the information brokers, and now it’s our job to make sure the clients get the right information. Being an agent today means working with people in new ways and being ready to adapt. Information is readily available online and digital marketing plays an important role, but we need to be able to focus on and share the most valuable information with our clients while also building a meaningful relationship with them. When we pay this extra attention to our clients, we are better equipped to do our job well and increase our sphere of influence.     Guest Bio Robyn Burdett is the Founder and CEO of the Robyn Burdett Real Estate Group and is the Associate Broker at RE/MAX West End. She has been in the real estate business for 31 years, selling homes throughout Northern Virginia, including Fairfax, Arlington, Loudoun and Prince William Counties. Robyn was awarded the Washingtonian Magazine 2017 Top Agent, the Washingtonian Magazine Top Team, the Northern Virginia Magazine Top Agent, the RE/MAX Lifetime Achievement Award, and is in the RE/MAX Diamond Club and the RE/MAX Hall of Fame.
