## Caption

When someone comes to you with a problem, what do you instinctively give them?

A solution?  A strategy?  Or simply a listening ear?

Sometimes people don’t want us to fix anything. They just want to feel heard.
Try asking: “Do you want empathy right now, or strategy?”

It could completely change the conversation.
