The Heart of Sacred Listening
What if listening — truly listening — could transform your life?
In a world filled with so much stress and overwhelm, exhaustion and burnout, fast-paced and surface-level, you may have become disconnected from your heart, your soul, and your passion. In a disconnected world, an opening to profound and deep connection — with yourself, with others, with life, and with a meaningful future worth living — becomes something that’s not just a nice thing but essential.
In The Heart of Sacred Listening, master coach and award-winning author Amba Gale invites you into a different way of being — one in which silence becomes wisdom and listening becomes a sacred act, bringing life and vitality into your life, and the life of others.
For over forty years, Amba has worked in rooms where the stakes were real: leadership teams in conflict, physicians under strain, executives facing hard decisions, families struggling to reconnect, people not feeling worthy, or listened to. Again and again, she has witnessed a profound shift — not because circumstances magically changed, but because perception did.
When listening deepens, your perception of the world shifts.
A manipulator can reveal a fierce commitment to contribute.
A complainer can emerge as someone who longs to make a difference.
When the world shifts, you are transformed.
In that transformation, you are your Self.
You belong.
This is the heart of Sacred Listening.
Not a technique.
Not a performance.
But a practice of presence that shifts how you see — and therefore how you live.
