“Listen to your heart… it knows so much more than your brain, despite what your brain might insist on saying. The brain is more ego-driven; it’s the PR agent and it's creating what you want the world to see you as… but you know in your heart or your gut when you’re doing the right thing or you’re off track.” Welcome to Listen To The Whisper, where Kate @ Bespoke Skills explores how people navigate change.
