Two images on the same cover: Image 1 shows two women, Heather and Theresa, standing next to each other. Heather is on the left, and Theresa is on the right. They are in front of a dark blue background with the text 'Episode 4 - Nov 1, 2023 - Episode times - Creating Connection with Dr. T.' in the center of the image in an oval. Below the oval, the title of the episode, 'Mindful Communication: Simple, Not Easy,' is displayed. 'Special guest: Heather Haslem' is written below the episode title.  Image 2 features the same two women, Theresa and Heather, standing next to each other. Theresa is on the left, wearing a red sweater, and Heather is on the left in a heather-black sweater. They are also in front of a dark blue background with the same text and design as in Image 1."In this engaging episode, Dr. T and her co-facilitator, Heather, invite you to explore the art of mindful communication. The title says it all – it's simple in theory but not always easy in practice.

Together, they share insights and practical tips on how to infuse your conversations with presence and compassion. Through their discussion, you'll discover how mindfulness can work its magic in transforming the way we connect with others, strengthening relationships and reducing misunderstandings.

Using real-world examples they will offer guidance on how to weave these principles into your daily life. Whether it's in your personal relationships, professional interactions, or any conversation that matters, this episode serves as a friendly guide to more authentic and empathetic communication.
