Ever been with a "talker?" And do you notice how you check out, get annoyed, or act polite and hold your breath until they finish? Well, that person is holding you "captive" as their audience and it's time you do something about it.

You’ve been a with a friend or partner who rambles on right? And, you check out or stop listening, but you let them talk right? We’ve all been there.

I’m asking that you show your “care” for them by listening in an entirely different way.
