We learn best to listen to our own voices if we are listening at the same time to other women - whose stories, for all our differences, turn out, if we listen well, to be our stories also.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Women like men who listen. We have two ears and one mouth, so we should listen twice as much as we speak.
If there's one thing I've learned about women, which I try to pass on to my boys, it's listening. Listen to the other side of the story first.
Listening to others does not mean you should sound like them; find your own voice by telling stories as authentically as possible.
We women must listen to our inner voice. It is easier for women to do this as they are not afraid to say what they feel.
Women don't want to hear what you think. Women want to hear what they think - in a deeper voice.
The voices of women need to be heard. The volume needs to be turned up.
One of the more interesting challenges I face when doing research for my novels is to trace the lives of women who are vital to the narrative and try my best to give them back their voices.
You have to listen to what resonates within your own gut. You find your direction there. Your voice comes out.
I respect women that have a voice and use it for a proper reason.
There's not a lot of stories for women told by women in a very real, true voice.
