In this episode, I share a striking perspective on human connection from Malidoma Somé, a West African shaman: what if our speech isn't proof of our superiority, but something that actually gets in our way?
Watching David Attenborough's documentary on mountain gorillas solidifies the point. Join me as we explore presence, the limits of language, and what happens when we view NVC not as a rigid formula to perform, but as a genuine doorway to contact.
