Episode Details

Are we really listening… or just waiting for our turn to talk?

In this powerful clip, Meeke Addison sits down with Dr. Kathy Koch to unpack a subtle but damaging habit—selfish listening—and how it impacts our children’s relationships, character, and future.

If your child struggles with friendships, feels left out, or dominates conversations, this may be the root issue. Dr. Kathy shares practical, biblical wisdom on how to identify this pattern and lovingly correct it—without shaming, but with clarity and truth.

You’ll learn how to:
• Recognize selfish listening in your child (and yourself)
• Address it with both love and authority
• Teach your kids how to engage in meaningful conversations
• Model Christ-centered, others-focused communication

This is a must-watch for parents who want to raise children who are kind, attentive, and deeply connected to others.
