Reflection: Through Understanding, We Grow

What happens when we stop making fast assumptions and start truly understanding ourselves—and others?

A conversation with ADHD coach Caroline Beresford left a lasting impression on me. Through her experiences and her book Two Ears, One Mouth and a Big Heart, she shares powerful insights that challenge the way we see difference.

I also share a personal story that pushes us to question our biases, embrace neurodiversity, and remember that different isn’t bad—it’s just different.

This reflection is an invitation to slow down, listen with empathy, and discover the true value of mentoring, understanding, and seeing beyond the surface.

Two Ears, One Mouth and a Big Heart is my invitation to you to rediscover the power of genuine human connection in a world that often feels noisy and disconnected.

After more than three decades of working with people and businesses, I’ve learned that the most powerful opportunities don’t come from strategies or systems alone—they come from the conversations we have, the relationships we build, and the courage to show up with clarity and heart.

In this book, I share stories, reflections, and practical insights to help you learn, grow, and achieve. Along the way, I’ll encourage you to pause and ask yourself questions like:

  • “Can I apply this to my business?”

  • “What could I do differently?”

To support you, I’ve also included a downloadable e-workbook filled with conversation starters and reflection prompts—because I don’t just want you to read these ideas, I want you to live them.

I believe we have two ears for listening, one mouth for sharing, and a big heart for engaging with others. When we remember this, we open ourselves to endless possibilities. Starting a ripple effect begins now. Don’t wait for a better time … because your time matters.
