## Resource

Welcome to the LDHR Podcast. This episode focuses on coaching: a conversation with Karen Zando about moving people from where they are to where they want to be. Host Beth and guest Karen cover core coaching skills, especially listening and asking powerful questions, and show how they apply in relationships, both professionally and personally. The episode offers practical tips you can use right away, including the WAIT acrostic (Why Am I Talking?), listening with mind, body, words, intuition, and the Spirit, and ways to reduce distractions. You’ll hear why listening builds value, trust, and deeper relationships. If you'd like more information about coaching or to get in contact with Karen, email llama@cru.org
