"I never knew how important empathetic listening and validation were in my life until I worked with Maren. I immediately felt stronger and more empowered to do my life tasks, and negotiate things with others." – NR

When is the last time someone listened to you with full presence?

For a whole hour?

If you have experienced this recently, I don't have to tell you how good it feels. (And I suggest you plan to connect with that person again soon!)

If it's been awhile, I invite you to imagine what you would like to share, if you had the opportunity.

What is alive in you right now?

What parts feel painful, icky, or out of alignment?

What parts of you feel great? Calm and clear? Excited?

Listening fully, to either or both of those parts, is what I love to do! I love to hear people's experience of what it is to be human. That's why I started Happy to Listen. I love to facilitate the lightness, clarity, and wellbeing that come with being fully heard.

•  Maybe you're having challenges in a relationship, or a work situation, and you want a chance to "vent," and express your feelings to an impartial outsider.

•  Maybe you're struggling with questions relating to the direction of your life: Should you travel? Begin a new career? Go back to school?

•  Maybe you just have some new ideas that you're excited about, and you want to say them out loud and talk them through, in order to put the pieces together and get clearer about your thoughts and discoveries.

No interruptions or distractions. No judgments or advice. Safe and confidential.
