Making Space for Conversations That Matter with Laura Prisc
108 episodes - English - Latest episode: almost 3 years ago - ★★★★★ - 9 ratingsI believe we are all longing for deeper connection with the people in our lives. We crave acknowledgment that what we do makes an impact. That who we are matters. And I’m tired of the superficial, shallow interactions that permeate most relationships. So, I am stepping off the well-beaten path to create the space to listen and explore.
By “creating the space” I mean blocking out some uninterrupted time and choosing to be fully present with someone to engage in a meaningful conversation.
Through Making Space for Conversations that Matter, I’ll intentionally engage in those conversations and I invite you to join me.
Together, we’ll take the time to explore and discover the brilliance, creativity, and wisdom of my guests through real, honest, and heartfelt conversation about what matters most and how they’re pursuing purpose in their lives.
If you’re longing for authenticity, deep meaning, significance, and powerful connection with others, this Podcast is for you!
