I’ve been thinking a lot lately about listening — not the polite kind, but the kind that actually changes how you see things and experience life.

After traveling and sitting in rooms with people across global private credit markets, one thing has become very clear to me, the best insight doesn’t come from talking more. It comes from slowing down and really hearing what’s being said and sometimes what isn’t.

Sit with me for this Coffee with Bill episode of Debt Doctor — I'm sharing my thoughts on why listening has become one of the most valuable tools I use in leadership, investing, and debt resolution.

From cultural perspective to quiet warning signs in private credit, this is a conversation about awareness, humility, and why markets often speak long before the numbers do, if you’re willing to listen.
