Episode #6 – Two GREAT Questions! from Karen Dietz

Karen DietzThe closest thing to mind control is asking a good question.  As in the old example:

Q: Are you thinking about a pink elephant?

A: No. Yes. Well, I wasn’t thinking about a pink elephant until you asked me if I was thinking about a pink elephant!

This podcast includes a fantastic short clip from my first interview with Karen Dietz.  I tell a story so she can  demonstrate the questions she uses to encourage “reflection and flow.”  It is less than ten minutes long.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
