An opportunity to ask questions to someone that we highly respect is priceless. With the question, we are curious to learn what they would do if they were in our shoes.
But nobody can truly stand in our shoes because they are not us.
It might not be about getting the answers that would actually solve our problems, even though it helps. It might be about the connection we seek to make.
We ask the questions that we are seeking to connect. And they choose the questions that they have something valuable to share.
Being seen, heard and understood work for the both sides.
