Practice active listening by giving your full attention to the speaker and validating their feelings and perspectives. Use "I" statements to express your thoughts and emotions without placing blame on the other person. Be open to feedback and willing to compromise to find mutually satisfying solutions. Remember, effective communication is the key to building strong and healthy relationships.

I focus on being a good listener, giving my full attention when someone speaks. I express myself clearly and honestly, avoiding assumptions and speaking from the heart. Practicing empathy helps me understand others' perspectives, and I’m careful to choose my words thoughtfully. Regularly checking in with my partner or loved ones helps ensure we're on the same page emotionally.
