Masterful Listening
Think of the Masterful Listening podcast as the first ever Listening School that you actually want to attend (because it's RAD.) Every episode is an opportunity to practice listening, or as your host Svetlana (AKA Svet) calls it, "Masterful Listening." According to Svet, listening is the most important skill most of us are never taught. Until now....
Love hearing epic stories? Laughing? Learning by having fun? Want more money, better sex and great sleep? How about a healthy dose of profound wisdom with just a hint of profanity? Yes? Keep reading then...
Every episode is a listening practice and chance to be thoroughly entertained because Svet is super funny. For real - you'll see. One of her superpowers is making it fun for you to learn how to listen by listening to her telling stories related to listening, while you practice the listening tools she's presenting ( which you will only hear if you're actually listening ;) Svet's also a tiny bit famous for inventing pretty rad mantras, painting them on pretty much everything, and then getting them tattooed as reminders. Thanks for making it this far, and if you're curious to experience the power of masterful listening, this is It!

I Am Exactly Perfectly On Time And So Are You: The Radical Medicine Of Embracing A Slow Pace In A World Of Haste And Stress
I believe it takes radical courage to go slow in a world of such urgency and haste.
In the past three months, my life took an unexpected turn after the sudden loss of my beloved soul dog, Rad. The weight of grief hit me like a car, causing my legs to fail me and leaving me unable to walk. In this disabled state, I found solace in living each moment as a walking meditation, embracing the beauty and power of a slow-paced existence. As I surrendered to this new way of living, I made a conscious choice to continue down this path, even as my legs slowly regained their strength.
Through this journey, I came to realize that slow and steady doesn't just win the race—I see now that there is no race. No longer willing to partake in the urgency and stress of our culture, I share my story of how radical grief and pain led me to embrace my authentic spacious slower pace, despite the world's constant rush.
In this episode of Masterful Listening my intention is to offer you, the listener, an invitation to not wait like I did for the universe to force you into a slow and handicapped state, but to choose to start practicing moving slow even if just a little bit every day. Ironically, the slower I move, the sooner the things I've been wanting seem to be coming to me.
This one is dedicated to the greatest teacher of my life, Rad, who in his infinite wisdom is still teaching me lessons from beyond.
