Joe Keohane, a veteran journalist who has held high-level editing positions at Medium, Esquire, Entrepreneur, and Hemispheres is the author of The Power of Strangers: The Benefits of Connecting In a Suspicious World. To offer your own advice, call Zak @ 844-935-BEST TRANSCRIPT: JOE: My name's Joe Keohane. I'm the author of the new book, The Power of Strangers: The Benefits of Connecting In a Suspicious World. ZAK: We've all gotten rusty talking to strangers because of COVID but also because of our phones and because of where we are as a culture. The thing that I like to do with this show is give people something they can try today. So, give me a strategy for getting back in to where it's not gonna overwhelm and feel like we have to go be friends with the world. JOE: First know that everybody is anxious. Everybody was anxious about talking to strangers before this for a lot of reasons I get into in the book and everyone's especially anxious now because we've been in the hole for a year. So, start easy. Start with a waiter or waitress. Talk to somebody that's at a coffee shop in a structured, public place where your roles are clear, right. You're not just sneaking up on someone on the street which I would not advise people to do. And there's a really cool technique that I learned from a woman named Georgie Nightingall who's this communications expert in London. I took a class with here where she taught people how to talk to strangers and she was very keen and very good at it. The idea that she had was, it involved scripts. So, when we have an interaction with someone at a corner store, right, you go in and say, how you doing? And the person says good, how are you and you say, good, thanks. And that's it. You've out no effort into it. There's no curiosity being exercised. It's just a way to recognize that you're standing there, right? Cause it would be weird not to say anything but you don't want to put any effort into it. So, that's a script and we use those all the time to converse cognitive load and things like that. When you find yourself in a situation like that and someone asks you a scripted question, give them a specific answer. So, what Georgie advised and what she always does and this is brilliant and I do it all the time. When someone says, how you doing? Georgie says, ehhhh, 7 our 10. So now you're off script. You're in uncharted territory. The person's gonna be alert now being like, ok, something different is happening here. I have to dial in. I have to pay attention. And then Georgie will say, how are you doing today? And now she's modeled something and they follow her lead because it's rude if they don't. This is how we communicate. They'll say, oh, pretty good. I'm about 8 out of 10. And then she'd say, what'll take to get you to a 9 today? And then they'll be like, my mother's not been feeling well. Maybe I'll go see her later. Maybe she'll be feeling better. JOE: When you get to that point, you get a glimmer of the other person. You get a glimmer of the depth and complexity of another person you would never register as a human being. People in service positions are often dehumanized. But, just a little trick like that is super useful and super easy and it's really funny and people I find are often kind of delighted by it. It's playful. It's audacious. You do that stuff enough, it leads to a little interaction and you'll feel good after you do it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Self-isolation can be difficult. If you read any of the advice about how to best deal with isolation – which comes from astronauts, submariners and others – you will come across some of the same bits of advice. These include maintaining a routine and staying physically active. However, there is one bit of advice that is crucial but that we all find very challenging – even before the coronavirus pandemic. That is maintaining and creating a meaningful connection with others. However, as you will hear, now is a great time to do just that. My guest in this episode is Georgie Nightingall. Georgie is the founder of Trigger Conversations, a business that is all about helping individuals and organisations engineer meaningful and stimulating conversations so that they happen more often. Since its launch in October 2016, they have stimulated 5000+ meaningful conversations between strangers and held over 8- events. Georgie has given a TedX talk on this topic and trained numerous organisations. In this episode, she shares a number of useful tips and tools that we all need right now to take advantage of an opportunity to connect and re-connect with others. And as you will also hear, that starts by embracing the uncertainty that an interaction with another human being can bring. This was a fun, inspiring and very insightful conversation!

In this latest instalment of the Animas Podcast, life coach, entrepreneur and founder of unique events business Trigger Conversations, Georgie Nightingall, talks about her work around getting people to have more meaningful conversations and move away from the repetitive mundanities of questions such as "what do you do?" Georgie also shares reflections on how identity and belonging play a part in our new encounters and conversations, as well as talking about her recent TedX talk on conversing with strangers. Georgie is an Animas-trained life coach, serial entrepreneur and the founder of Trigger Conversations. In all of her work, she is fascinated with how we can engineer real conversations that allow us to express our whole self, feel truly nourished, connected and provoke new discovery about ourselves, others and the world.

Georgie Nightingall was fed up: fed up with small talk, and fed up of waiting for her next meaningful encounter to appear out of thin air. So she founded Trigger Conversations, which runs playful events and training to help people have more meaningful conversations in their everyday lives. She’s a TEDx speaker with multiple degrees in Philosophy, Applied Psychology and Linguistics, and is constantly learning more about the field of emotional intelligence and human interaction.These days, she’s something of an expert in the art of talking to strangers – an activity she’s turned into a daily practice. She and I discussed conversational scripts, the impact of technology on our ability to relate, how to start a conversation with a stranger without seeming like a weirdo, and how she’s learned to feel belonging no matter where she goes or who she’s with.Find out more about Trigger Conversations here

*This is a rebroadcast of the episode orignally aired in July 2017*   Here we explore the breadth and depth of emotions so listeners can use what we discuss to help enrich lives or help protect from or reduce harm.  We focus on the roles #emotion #credibility and #deception play in the workplace.   In this episode our founder, Phil Willcox is talking with Georgie Nightingall about changing up the standard networking type conversation.  A lot of the talk we do, especially in a networking type setting is ritualised.  What we mean by that is the types of questions we ask, the responses we give and the way we interact is almost pre-set.  A good example of this would be the classic 'So... what do you do?' type question at a networking event.  During our conversation we go on to explore conversations in the workplace, in teams, on line and the link to the identity or identities we build for ourselves.  We also cover identity at work, at home and how the boundaries can/do/will become blurred.  I thoroughly enjoyed my chat with Georgie and below are the links to all the different theories or concepts we have discussed:   Relevance theory and meaning: http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/publications/WPL/02papers/wilson_sperber.pdf https://www.thoughtco.com/relevance-theory-communication-1691907   Trigger Conversations and their events: https://www.triggerconversations.co.uk/ https://www.triggerconversations.co.uk/#EVENTS georgie@triggerconversations.co.uk   Conversation(al) rtiuals https://hbr.org/1995/09/the-power-of-talk-who-gets-heard-and-why https://youtu.be/CFa2m-tLIaE   Allowable contributions http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/soc/faculty/heritage/Site/Publications_files/CA%20and%20INSTITUTIONAL%20TALK_LSI.pdf   Allowable contributions and improvisation: https://www.bangor.ac.uk/mindfulness/documents/DisciplinedImprovisation.pdf   Books: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Artists-Way-Discovering-Recovering-Creative/dp/0330343580 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tools-Titans-Billionaires-World-Class-Performers/dp/1785041274/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1499675468&sr=8-1&keywords=tools+of+titans     Thanks for listening.  If you enjoy what you hear, then please leave us a review...
