  • Summary

  • Think of the Masterful Listening podcast as the first ever Listening School that you actually want to attend (because it's RAD.) Every episode is an opportunity to practice listening, or as your host Svetlana (AKA Svet) calls it, "Masterful Listening." According to Svet, listening is the most important skill most of us are never taught. Until now....

    Love hearing epic stories? Laughing? Learning by having fun? Want more money, better sex and great sleep? How about a healthy dose of profound wisdom with just a hint of profanity? Yes? Keep reading then...

    Every episode is a listening practice and chance to be thoroughly entertained because Svet is super funny. For real - you'll see. One of her superpowers is making it fun for you to learn how to listen by listening to her telling stories related to listening, while you practice the listening tools she's presenting ( which you will only hear if you're actually listening ;) Svet's also a tiny bit famous for inventing pretty rad mantras, painting them on pretty much everything, and then getting them tattooed as reminders. Thanks for making it this far, and if you're curious to experience the power of masterful listening, this is It!

  • From Moldova to California: An Immigrant's Pursuit of Fulfillment Beyond Happiness

    From Moldova to California: An Immigrant's Pursuit of Fulfillment Beyond Happiness

    In this episode of Masterful Listening, I recount the day of my immigration from Moldova, a twist of fate that coincided with the actual closure of the borders on the eve of the USSR's collapse.

    In Moldova, my family was relatively well-off despite the constraints of the USSR. Overnight, my journey took a significant turn as I experienced life as a refugee and immigrant in Brooklyn, NY navigating the challenges of starting anew in pursuit of the American dream.

    At the age of 20, I stumbled upon "The Geography of Bliss," a book that revealed Moldova's status as the world's unhappiest country, sparking a decade-long exploration into the essence of happiness. This discovery led me through a decade of research, a journey through depression, and ultimately transformation.

    From experiencing welfare to gaining access to private school and a middle-class American lifestyle, I witnessed firsthand the stark contrast between different states of being. My path eventually led me to California, where I now live a life that once felt utterly unattainable.

    Through my story, I invite the audience to explore beyond the conventional notions of happiness and embrace a life enriched by resilience, compassion, and meaning. It was only when I stopped seeking happiness that my life turned into one of profound gratitude for the multidimensionality of the human experience.

  • The Cost of Conformity: Embracing Authenticity's Ultimate Value

    The Cost of Conformity: Embracing Authenticity's Ultimate Value

    This episode of Masterful Listening is inspired by this quote from Gary Vee -

    "I am willing to deal with the ramifications of being my full self."

    I reflect on the importance of accepting the repercussions of being true to oneself.

    Especially, considering the cost of abandoning ourselves.

    Despite my efforts to avoid upsetting others or making a negative impression, I realize that compromising my full self ultimately leads to dissatisfaction and discord. Through introspection and self-discovery, I acknowledge the power and beauty of expressing and fully embracing our unique individuality.

    This episode serves as a tribute to the strength found in embracing our true selves, unapologetically and wholeheartedly.

  • Empowerment Through Self-Sovereignty: Cultivating Inner Strength and Emotional Independence

    Empowerment Through Self-Sovereignty: Cultivating Inner Strength and Emotional Independence
    Jun 7 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    In this episode of "Masterful Listening," I share the transformative insights gained from a recent therapy session. It helped me realize ( and remember) that as adults, it is our own responsibility to save ourselves, rather than relying on others to do so.

    While as children we needed others to care for us, as adults, we have the power to take care of ourselves and avoid self-abandonment. Taking full responsibility for our own growth and well-being not only benefits ourselves but also contributes to the growth of those around us.

    Join me as I explore the empowering journey of self-rescue and the impact it can have on personal development and relationships.

    Also, shout out to Betterhelp!
