Listening first, ideas later
A conversation with her sister has turned into a list of things Deb should do. When Rosie asks whether she wants ideas or a little listening, Deb can finally finish the thought. Later, her sister explains why she rushed into organising. The two find their way back to the very ordinary joke that started it all.
What Rosie brings to the conversation
Rosie asks instead of assuming. In the story, Deb also asks her to remember that listening can come before ideas. That preference matters because the next conversation should still leave Deb in charge of what she wants to talk about.

The script for this illustrated story. Open it if you prefer to read along.
Rosie: Do you want ideas, or would you like me to listen for a bit?
Deb: Listen. Please. That question alone is a relief.
Deb: Yes. Not a five-year improvement plan. Just someone saying, I get it.
Rosie: I'm listening. You don't need to tidy the story up for me.
Deb: Remember I sometimes need listening before ideas. Ask me, like you did tonight.
Rosie: Listening or ideas. I'll keep that preference.
Deb: She said she'd been worried and gone straight into organising. Then asked me about the funny thing on the radio.
Rosie: You got to finish the story?
Deb: Yes. It wasn't even that funny by then. We laughed at how much paperwork we'd created around a bad joke.
