In this episode, sit down with host Jordan Montgomery as we discuss all things First Impressions. This podcast was inspired by Ann Demarais's book – First Impressions: What You Don't Know About How Others See You. Our initial interactions with others are critical in shaping our relationships and building trust. They determine whether someone sees you with the “Halo Effect” – where one positive characteristic spotted inspires the belief that there are many other positive behaviors and traits, or the “Horns Effect” – where one negative trait spotted leads to the conclusion that there are other negative traits and behaviors lurking beneath the surface. Because we weigh initial information more heavily than later information, first impressions are KEY! We'll talk about the 4 most important things to implement when making a first impression and having that first conversation, as well as why it is important to focus not on what you say, but how you make someone feel. SPECIAL ANNOUNCMENT!! On March 13th we are rebranding, and this podcast will be retitled as the Growth Over Goals Podcast! Same great content, new name

My guest today is a psychologist who specializes in the science of first impressions and has written the most useful and thorough book on the topic that I've come across. Her name is Ann Demarais and her book is "First Impressions: What You Don’t Know About How Others See You." Today on the show, Ann explains how quickly we make a first impression and the psychological biases that influence how people judge you (and how you judge others). We then dig into what you should focus on during a first interaction to give a good impression and the behaviors you may think come off as neutral or positive but actually read in a negative way. For example, you may think you’re giving off a relaxed vibe during a social interaction, but others might see you as aloof. Ann explains how to find these blind spots in your self-awareness and what to do about them. We end our conversation by going through some actionable tips to become more charismatic, like how to keep a conversation going when your first meet someone, how to show interest in someone without looking creepy, and the common mistakes men make with their first impressions. And if you happen to blow your first impression, Ann shares how to recover.
