In this episode, we discussed how we shape meaning around everything in our lives and how that meaning may not be what was really said.
Have you ever misinterpreted what someone said? We all have. Miscommunication can be complex and lead to all sorts of trouble, and what we SAY isn't always what someone HEARS.
Understanding how this works and why it happens can be useful in both personal and professional relationships. In this episode, Eddie and I explored why what we SAY and what someone HEARS can be profoundly different.
A core reason for this is that we frame any communication from our own perspective, distorting the original message to fit within a certain context.
We also discuss why it's so important to recognize that our own perception is not necessarily the same as the other person's.
Communication lies at the heart of every relationship. Whether it's with our friends, family, colleagues, or strangers, we need to be aware of how our words are received. We need to be mindful of the contexts we communicate and be open to different interpretations.
Only then can we truly build meaningful and lasting connections with those around us? Tune in to this episode for more on this and some interesting stories!
