Podcasts about Habit

What if the fastest way to create deeper conversations, improve your leadership abilities, and your relationships wasn't a better plan—but a better question?  My guest today is Michael Bungay Stanier, bestselling author of The Coaching Habit, the most popular coaching book of the century, to unpack why most of us rush to give advice too quickly and how staying curious just a little longer can change everything.  You'll hear Michael talk about why we're all "advice-giving maniacs," how asking better questions leads to better outcomes, and the simple coaching framework Michael has taught to coaches and leaders around the world. You'll learn his most powerful questions and why they unlock clarity, accountability, and trust. Whether you're a parent, leader, manager, spouse, or maybe you're someone who wants deeper, more meaningful conversations, you'll learn how coaching is really about helping people feel seen, heard, and empowered—not fixed.  KEY TAKEAWAYS One Thing That The Best Coaches Do The Best Way to Avoid Giving Unwanted Advice The Power Of Asking One Question & Then Listening How Michael Pivoted From His Coaching Practice  Accountability Isn't About Cracking a Whip Systems That Help You Follow-Through On Your Goal How Money & Side Bets Are Powerful Motivators How To Be Useful When Someone Asks for Advice The Best Question a Coach Can Ask to Dig Deeper How to Learn More From Michael The Deeper Gift that Coaching Offers Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/625 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Does the urge to drink ever go away, or is it something you're stuck managing forever? In this Alcohol Freedom Coaching episode, Coach Hayley works with Mark, and Coach Soraya supports Michael as they share the real, messy middle of change. Mark talks about years of 30, 60, and 90-day breaks, the weight of the “alcoholic” label, and how an emotion-based goal—making alcohol immaterial in his life—finally eased the mental tug-of-war. Michael opens up about being 45 days alcohol-free, feeling “on display” in social situations, and tracing that discomfort back to a lifelong drive to fit in. These are the exact kinds of questions—about cravings, labels, and belonging—that get coached compassionately daily inside The Path. In Mark's session: Exploring if the urge to drink ever goes away through real-life data points Moving from “I'm an alcoholic who can't drink” to “alcohol is an addictive substance” Why time-based goals kept him chasing “normal drinking” Adopting an emotion-based goal: making alcohol immaterial in his life Using ACT and curiosity to meet cognitive dissonance instead of fighting it Noticing how cravings and thoughts faded dramatically by around 90 days Reclaiming mental real estate, time, and energy for what actually matters And more In Michael's session: Feeling like he has to explain his choice and wondering does the urge to drink ever go away Using an ankle injury as a temporary “cover story” while he builds confidence Linking his discomfort to a deep drive to fit in and avoid conflict Connecting current social anxiety to teen anorexia and years of trying to blend in Learning that friends' reactions often reveal their unease with alcohol Shifting from autopilot drinking to conscious “pilot” mode with curiosity and logic Letting the world adapt to his alcohol-free choice instead of shrinking himself And more Hayley Scherders is a certified TNM Coach with training from the Canadian Addiction and Mental Health Association.

If you're serious about building a brand that actually moves people: https://freebrandcall.com/mattlebris Michael Chernow shares the brutal truth about addiction, ego, and the dangerous comfort traps that keep most people stuck in cycles they secretly hate but feel too afraid to leave. He reveals the psychological battle between faith and fear, explaining how the voice in your head that says you're not enough is often just your ego trying to protect you from discomfort — and why most people unknowingly take the bait. Michael breaks down how structure, discipline, and a 5AM routine became the foundation that rebuilt his life after overdose, and why asking for help — even when it feels humiliating — is the single habit that saved him. He opens up about growing up in chaos, battling self-hatred, surviving rock bottom, and building a life rooted not in money or status, but in love, family, and communication — the one variable research shows determines long-term happiness.

Some mornings, self-worth doesn't feel like confidence. It's quiet, ordinary, human. In this episode, I share a moment straight from my journal — the kind of morning where I asked myself, Am I doing enough? Am I showing up the right way? Should I be further along by now? This episode is intimate and unpolished, showing what self-worth looks like on an ordinary day and why it doesn't require perfection or clarity. Curious about my journaling practice? I shared more about my Morning Pages approach in a previous episode — a simple way to reconnect with your self-worth, even on busy days. 94 | Add this Habit to your Morning Routine to help you Live a Happy Day: use the Morning Pages Technique to clear your mind of Negative Thoughts If this episode resonates, I'd love to hear from you!

As workplace trends continue to evolve, Jason identifies 4 foundational habits that every culture needs to be intentional about to create their future. Gemini said Jason builds on the emerging workplace trends of 2026 to identify the four foundational habits every organization needs to cultivate a high-performing culture. Please rate and review the podcast to help amplify these messages to others! Summary: In a workplace landscape defined by a 10-year low in employee engagement and the rapid integration of AI, how do leaders ensure their teams remain connected and high-performing? In this episode of The Thermostat, Jason V. Barger outlines a roadmap for 2026, shifting the focus from reactive trends to proactive, human-centered habits. He explores how the "soft skills" of the past—empathy, adaptability, and trust—have become the essential hard skills for modern executives. This conversation challenges the traditional "work-life balance" myth, proposing instead a "work-life rhythm" that treats employee well-being as a core business strategy rather than a perk. Jason breaks down the mechanics of "setting the temperature" through strategic culture audits, intentional 365-day onboarding, and the participatory alignment of values. By moving values from "posters on the wall to people in the room," leaders can build an environment where culture is co-created and sustained at every level. Essential listening for C-Suite executives, HR directors, and emerging leaders, this episode offers a tactical guide to navigating the technological shifts of AI while doubling down on the human elements that drive long-term organizational health. Episode Notes & Timestamps: [00:00] Intro: Jason sets the stage for 2026, identifying four habits your culture needs to navigate current workplace shifts. [00:03] 2026 Workplace Trends: A recap of the five key trends impacting the workforce, including values alignment and the engagement crisis. [00:05] The New Core Competencies: Why empathy, communication, and trust-building are now the most critical "hard skills" for leaders. [00:06] From Balance to Rhythm: A strategic look at well-being as a performance driver and the reality of the hybrid work standard. [00:10] Habit 1 – The Culture Audit: Moving beyond survey fatigue to a strategic, honest assessment of your organization's "temperature". [00:12] Habit 2 – 365-Day Onboarding: Why the best organizations view onboarding as a year-long cultural roadmap rather than a first-week event. [00:14] Habit 3 – Participatory Values: Strategies to move values from static slogans to actionable behaviors that drive decision-making. [00:15] Habit 4 – Continuous Leadership Development: Why senior leaders must avoid becoming "finished products" and remain committed to their own growth. [00:17] Closing Questions: Jason leaves leaders with reflective prompts to strengthen their personal and organizational habits. Key Takeaways for Leaders: Audit for Action: Conduct a culture audit every 2–3 years, but only if you are committed to communicating themes and acting on the feedback to avoid survey fatigue. The 365-Day Rule: Treat onboarding as a long-term strategic immersion into your culture, not just a logistical checklist. Human-AI Balance: Lean on AI for efficiency, but double down on human judgment and emotional intelligence to lead effectively.

He believes that corporate culture is the "thermostat" of an organization and that it can be used to drive performance, innovation, and engagement.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Joe Ferraro, host of the One Percent Better podcast and a coach who helps leaders have stronger conversations when the stakes are high. If you lead projects, you know how quickly a meeting, a status update, or a feedback moment can either build trust or quietly drain it. Joe shares small, practical moves that make conversations more memorable and more useful. You will hear why being "good at talking" is not the same as being good at conversation, and how preparation can be a generous act toward the other person. They also discuss how to avoid default, predictable questions, how to turn a one-way presentation into something more interactive, and how to keep your composure when you feel defensive. Joe even offers a simple technique for pressure testing ideas without starting a fight, plus a listening cue you can use the next time you feel tempted to jump in. If you're looking for insights on having better conversations that save projects and strengthen relationships, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "And you know what's a great barometer there is for people listening to ask themselves on a daily basis? How many questions do they ask?" "But the reality is a generous conversation is one where you're prepared." "And the easiest path, the simplest path is to ask more questions and then listen, like your life depends on it." "The human ear driving, or on the treadmill or in a board meeting doesn't want to hear the same length answer every time from Andy or Joe or Sheila." "If you feel like you're bursting at the seams and you need to share something, that's when you know to hold it in and to focus on them." "I teach people the technique of inserting devil's advocate, where you, you don't wanna necessarily become the villain, but you say, you know, Andy, you know, it's a great point." "But when I go back to, to Mitch Albom one time, he paused seven seconds before I asked him, before he answered the question." "If you have a recorded conversation, simply ask it to pull out every question that was asked." "My favorite question to ask is the one that I think will elicit the best response for what I'm interested in learning in this moment."

Show Summary: In today's episode of the Grow My Accounting Practice podcast, Mike Michalowicz is joined by Ron Saharyan and Liz Szporn to talk about Mike's newest book, The Money Habit, and the launch of Money Habit Mentors.

Ron and Liz discuss what this shift means for accounting and advisory professionals, and why guiding clients through personal money behavior is becoming an essential extension of trusted financial advisory work. They also introduce the Money Habit Mentor designation, explaining how it equips professionals to help clients move from financial stress to clarity, confidence, and long-term control of their money.

In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson explores the transformative power of setting aside dedicated time for deep thinking and proactive problem-solving within law firms. Drawing inspiration from organizations like NASA and SpaceX, he encourages law firm leaders to regularly schedule uninterrupted time to strategize, test, and implement solutions.  Prioritizing time to think as a law firm owner is very important to ensure you run your business successfully. Tyson shares some insights on why setting time aside to think is challenging but important. Most times, a lot of people are multitasking and trying to get multiple things done in a short amount of time. Though this might be your reality, it is important as a law firm owner to put time aside to think about how things are going for your firm. Especially if you are wanting to make your firm better. You need to think about how that will happen. If you take dedicated time to think about it, you can bring it to your team to get ideas flowing and start working towards that idea or goal.Thinking time needs to be scheduled and communicated to your team in order for it to work. Figure out the time of day where you are the sharpest. Maybe it's a 1 hour block in the morning, a quick 20 minute block in the early afternoon or right before bed. Decide what time works best for thinking and put it in your calendar. It is crucial to communicate this thinking time to your team so they don't disrupt it to ensure you can focus. Also, any ideas that come from this dedicated thinking time should be provided to your team so they know what you are expecting of them.Listen in to learn more!2:26 The Challenge of Prioritizing Thinking Time5:45 Proactive Problem-Solving vs. Reactive Management13:42 Scheduling and Communicating Thinking Time16:43 Common Traits of Successful Law Firms18:51 The Power of Focused, Uninterrupted Problem Solving Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

If you feel like you're working out seven days a week just to get smaller but you still don't feel confident, energized, or powerful in your own skin...this episode is for you.The truth is, society has conditioned us to believe that "success" means shrinking. We're told that if we aren't exhausted after every workout, it doesn't count. But real, lasting transformation happens when you stop trying to disappear and start focusing on what you can build.In this episode of the Redefining Strength Podcast, I sit down with Tara LaFerrara. Tara is a premier fitness coach, creator of the Broads app, and an expert at helping women move away from the "all-or-nothing" mindset to build real strength and confidence.Together, we break down:The "Shrinking" Trap: Why success isn't measured by a number on the scale and how to shift your focus to taking up space.The HIIT Girly Phase: Why the "more is better" approach leads to burnout and how to transition to intentional lifting.Identity Shift: Why building a habit takes 60 days, but building an identity takes years and why most people stop too soon.The Challenge Gap: Why we stop challenging ourselves as we get older and how to regain the courage to be a beginner again.Filtering Information Overload: How to put blinders on when social media tells you there is only "one way" to train.The All-or-Nothing Solution: Practical strategies to win your day even when you can't get all ten things on your to-do list done.Under-Recovering vs. Overtraining: Why rest and deload weeks are actually the fast track to breaking through plateaus.If you've ever thought:“It only counts if I'm dripping in sweat and exhausted.”“I want to be strong, but I'm afraid of taking up too much space.”“I'm an all-or-nothing person; if I miss one workout, the whole week is ruined.”“I've built the habits, but I still don't feel like I've changed who I am.”This episode is for you.Chapters:00:00 – Stop Trying to Shrink!01:50 – Leaving the "HIIT Girly" Mindset Behind 14:27 – Why We Struggle to Be Beginners as Adults 19:22 – Habit vs. Identity: The Real Timeline for Change 25:21 – Filtering the "Information Overload" of Social Media 31:52 – How to Finally Break the All-or-Nothing Cycle 37:23 – Why Recovery & Deloading Are Non-Negotiable 

Can I Moderate? Why This Question Matters More Than We Talk About For most of my recovery journey, I held a pretty firm belief: If you're questioning your drinking, the answer is probably abstinence. That belief came from both lived experience, as well as observing other people who struggle with alcohol. Personally, I never drank normally. From the very first drink, the switch flipped on—and it stayed on. I hit a hard bottom early, and after years of trying to moderate, the answer for me was clear: I could not moderate. As it turned out, for me abstinence meant freedom. And still… Over time, something softened in me. Not because I changed my relationship with alcohol—but because I started listening more closely to other people's experiences. The Question Everyone Has to Answer for Themselves I've come to believe this: "Can I moderate?" is not a denial question. It's a developmental one. For many people, it's the pivot point of their entire recovery journey. Some people answer it quickly. Some answer it painfully. Some don't answer it until years—sometimes decades—later. But skipping the question doesn't make it disappear. And that's why my conversation with Nick Allen, CEO and co-founder of Sunnyside, felt so important. Nick grew up in an AA household. Both of his parents are in long-term recovery. He understands abstinence deeply—and still, his own relationship with alcohol took a different path. Instead of waiting for a crisis, he began asking a quieter question early on: What does a healthy relationship with alcohol look like for me—right now? That question eventually became Sunnyside: a platform designed to help people explore change before things fall apart. The Missing Middle Here's the reality I see again and again: Most people are offered two options: Figure it out Quit forever And when those are the only choices on the table, a huge number of people choose to keep trying to figure it out. Not because they're reckless. Not because they don't care. But because abstinence can feel overwhelming, stigmatizing, or premature—especially for people who are still functioning "well enough." Research suggests there's often a 10-year gap between when alcohol becomes a problem and when someone seeks help. Ten years. Think about what happens in ten years: Careers strained Health eroded Relationships damaged Kids absorbing instability they can't name yet Waiting is not neutral. Why Willpower Isn't the Answer One thing Nick and I aligned on immediately: Willpower is a terrible long-term strategy. Willpower is finite. It's lowest at the exact moments people need it most: After a long day During stress At the witching hour (5–7pm) On Fridays when it's "been a week" Sunnyside takes a different approach: Decisions are made ahead of time, when clarity is high Habits are supported with structure, not shame Accountability is externalized, not moralized This is how real behavior change works. A Word About Naltrexone (And Nuance) We also talked openly about naltrexone, a medication that's been FDA-approved for decades to help reduce alcohol cravings. Here's what matters: It doesn't make people sick It doesn't require abstinence It reduces the reward loop that drives compulsive drinking I've had clients use it successfully—particularly high-functioning people who struggled with the "off switch," not daily drinking. But for people earlier in the process—people quietly wondering, "Is this still working for me?"—tools like this can interrupt years of silent suffering. Language Matters More Than We Think One of the most powerful parts of this conversation was about vocabulary. Words like addict, alcoholic, relapse, recovery—they carry weight. For some people, they offer clarity and belonging. For others, they create shame, fear, and avoidance. If the language feels too heavy, people wait. Sunnyside intentionally avoids labels and instead talks about: Alcohol overuse Habit change Awareness Experimentation That shift alone can make change feel possible. Where I Land Now I'm still sober and have no desire to drink again. I still believe abstinence is the right path for most people who struggle with alcohol. And I also believe we need earlier, gentler, more honest entry points into change. The goal of sobriety—or moderation, or reduction—isn't the absence of alcohol. It's: Freedom Health Presence A life that actually works If someone can get there sooner, with less damage along the way, I'm all for it.     Action Steps If this resonated, here are a few grounded next steps: Ask the question honestly Is alcohol adding to my life—or quietly taking from it? Move from judgment to curiosity You don't need a label to run an experiment. Plan ahead of cravings Decisions made in advance beat willpower every time. Seek support early Coaching, tracking, community, and medical tools are preventative—not last resorts. Protect what already works If abstinence is serving you, honor that. No need to second-guess stability.     Resources Sunnyside: https://www.sunnyside.co/arlina Sunnyside Med (Naltrexone access) NIH research on alcohol use disorder and treatment gaps AA and abstinence-based recovery programs (for those who already know)     If you're listening to this podcast, reading this post, or even asking the question quietly to yourself—you're already earlier than most. And earlier matters.   Guest Contact Info: https://get.sunnyside.co/arlina

And how do you respond to negative, critical people?   In this episode, we discuss how to deal with a critical spirit – whether you are critical of yourself or others, or you have to deal with judgmental people.

Send a textHave you ever told yourself,“Okay. This time I'm going to stick with it.”And then a few weeks later… life happens. The routine shifts. The habit disappears. And suddenly you're questioning your consistency, your discipline — maybe even your identity. If that sounds familiar, this episode is your reset.We're revisiting one of our most powerful conversations with Ronnie Loaiza — behavioral science expert, certified habit coach, master certified life coach, and personal trainer — because the truth about habits is more relevant than ever.Especially for high-achieving women leaders.Because here's what we see all the time: You don't struggle with ambition or commitment. You struggle with trying to build habits on top of pressure, burnout, and unrealistic expectations.And your brain? It's simply doing what it was wired to do.In This Episode, We Explore:✨ Why willpower is overrated✨ The difference between a routine and a habit✨ What to do when a habit you built suddenly disappears✨ Why 21 days is a myth (real studies show 85–185 days!)✨ How to identify the hidden “reward” behind habits that aren't serving you✨ The neuroscience behind dopamine, celebration, and momentum✨ Ronnie's simple If–Then strategy for creating flexibility without losing progress✨ Why momentum beats motivation every timeWe also go deeper into the pre-work most habit books skip:Before you build the habit, you have to uncover: What void is this habit filling? What reward am I unconsciously protecting? Does this habit actually align with who I'm becoming?Because sometimes the habit isn't the problem.Sometimes it's the identity shift happening underneath it.For the Leader Who…Feels pressure to perform at the highest level — alwaysWorries about burnout but keeps pushing anywayBelieves she “should be able to handle it all”Wants systems that support her success instead of draining herIs ready to work smarter — not harderThis conversation will meet you exactly where you are.Not with hustle, shame, or more discipline. But with neuroscience, compassion, and strategy.Reflect As You Listen:Where am I relying on motivation instead of systems?What tiny action could rebuild trust with myself today?What changed in my life that may have disrupted my routine?Am I judging myself… when I actually just need a new plan?High performance doesn't require punishment. Sustainable leadership doesn't require self-neglect.And habits that last? They're built on awareness, alignment, and celebration.

In this episode of Adulting with Autism, April sits down with Leah Marone — psychotherapist, speaker, and author of Serial Fixer: Break Free from the Habit of Solving Other People's Problems — to unpack why autistic and neurodivergent adults are often vulnerable to people-pleasing, masking, over-accommodating, and chronic burnout. Leah explains how "fixer mode" can start in childhood as a trauma response or learned pattern tied to love, praise, and survival — and how it becomes an exhausting loop of false ownership, hypervigilance, and anxiety. In this conversation, we cover: What it really means to be a "serial fixer" and how to recognize the pattern Why high emotional intelligence can become premature problem-solving How anxiety pulls us into the past (rumination) or future (worst-case planning) The connection between masking, people-pleasing, and losing your authentic self How to set boundaries without collapsing into guilt or conflict avoidance Why recovery matters for autistic adults navigating overstimulation and social decoding Micro-regulation tools for anxiety (cold on the chest, breath, movement, blood flow shifts) How caregivers can support neurodivergent young adults without "over-solving" Practical strategies for boundaries and burnout prevention in the workplace This episode is especially helpful for autistic adults, ADHDers, late-diagnosed individuals, caregivers, and high-achievers who feel stuck in overfunctioning and want to find their own version of calm, balance, and "enoughness."

I interviewed Play Ventures General Partner Phylicia Koh to explore what founders outside of gaming can learn from two decades of game design. Play Ventures began as a gaming-focused VC fund. Today, it also invests in what Phylicia calls “playable apps,” consumer products that combine utility with the engagement mechanics of games. That doesn't mean slapping on points and badges. It means understanding motivation, social dynamics, retention loops, and in-app economies. We talk about: What actually makes an app “playable” — and why most gamification fails The difference between vanity retention and real engagement Why founders should get comfortable with paid user acquisition  What she wants to see at pre-seed (hint: can you ship?) How to design for habit in categories like fintech, wellness, and spirituality If you're a domain expert building a consumer product and you've never seriously considered how game design might increase engagement and lifetime value, this conversation will give you a new lens.

  In this episode, we explore how porn reshapes relationships, not just behavior. We talk about how porn: quietly reorganizes relationships around absence impacts the partner's nervous system and sense of safety often feels like cheating, even when there's no physical affair contributes to loneliness, emotional withdrawal, and loss of self in partners shapes expectations of intimacy and attitudes toward women creates predictability that looks like safety—but isn't We also explore why time alone doesn't build security in relationships and why repair, not perfection, actually creates safety. This conversation isn't about blame or shame.  It's about understanding why things feel the way they do and what helps people rebuild capacity for intimacy, presence, and connection. Whether you're navigating porn use, supporting a partner, or trying to make sense of distance in your relationship, this episode offers language for experiences that are often difficult to name.

Your heart reveals more about your performance capacity than you think. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Dr. Leah Lagos, clinical psychologist and performance expert, to explore the science of heart rate variability and how a simple breathing practice can transform cognitive performance, emotional regulation, and long-term resilience. From working with elite athletes on the PGA Tour to coaching world leaders and executives, Dr. Lagos breaks down how resonant frequency breathing changes baseline heart rhythms, prevents cognitive fatigue, and allows high performers to make critical decisions without fear. This conversation will equip you with the physiological tools that separate sustained excellence from burnout. Here's what you'll learn: Why heart rate variability is a more reliable indicator of cognitive capacity than most people realize How 15 minutes of resonant frequency breathing twice a day can rewire your nervous system Why comparing your HRV to others is meaningless and what metrics actually matter for performance Want to improve your performance? Start with your heart. ---- Show Notes: 02:58 – Dr. Leah Lagos explains the science of resonant frequency breathing and how it creates homeostasis in the nervous system. 06:20 – Why comparing your HRV to others is meaningless and what metrics actually matter for performance. 12:06 – How chronic stress compounds over time and shows up reliably in your heart rate variability. 13:36 – The lifestyle factors that tank HRV: alcohol, dehydration, excessive caffeine, and who you spend time with. 17:59 – Why HRV training expands prefrontal lobe bandwidth and prevents cognitive fatigue under pressure. 22:35 – How resonant frequency breathing differs from meditation and produces measurable baseline changes in four weeks. 28:45 – The practical protocol: 15 minutes twice a day, finding your resonant frequency, and committing for ten weeks. 37:35 – The role of vagal tone in connecting heart, gut, and brain for better decision-making and health. 39:25 – Why breathwork is a must-have practice for longevity and sustained excellence, not just recovery. ---- Links & Resources: Dr. Leah Lagos Heart Breath Mind by Dr. Leah Lagos Oura Ring WHOOP Garmin Polar Alex Honnold ---- Do you love this podcast and want to see more game changing content?

Send a textFive days into deployment as a Marine infantry officer, a live-fire training accident severed Captain Patrick Nugent's sciatic nerve and paralyzed his right leg. What most people called “the worst thing that could ever happen” became the turning point for everything that came next.Patrick is a Marine veteran, Invictus Games athlete, Harvard Kennedy School and Wharton grad, Boston Consulting Group consultant, and future Paralympic hopeful. And in this episode of Consequence of Habit, he joins JT to talk about grit, habits, and cognitive reappraisal: the ability to literally rewrite the story you tell yourself about adversity.Patrick walks through the injury, the brutal recovery at Walter Reed, and the decision to treat his situation not as an ending, but as an opening. They dig into keystone habits, goal-tracking, stoic philosophy, and why believing “this might be the best thing that ever happened to me” changed his life. If you're facing something that feels defining or impossible, this conversation will give you a new lens, and a roadmap. - - - - - - - - - - -Support Consequence of HabitSubscribe: Apple Podcast | SpotifyCheck us out: Instagram | Twitter | WebsiteThe show is Produced and Edited by Palm Tree Pod Co.

He writes for The New Yorker and other publications and is the author of Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection (Amazon, Bookshop)*. A lot of us grew up in a world where most of our relationships started in person. That means many of us are beautifully equipped for a world that no longer exists. In this conversation, Charles and I discuss how to get better at connecting in a remote-first world. Key Points When the telephone first became popular, people had to learn how to communicate with it. We're at a similar inflection point with digital communication. We all have three kinds of conversations: (1) What's this really about? (practical/decision-making), (2) How do we feel? (emotional), and (3) Who are we? (identity). Many of us tend to default to practical/decision-making conversations online and miss conversations about emotion and identity. Ask questions that invite an emotional or identity response. Instead of, “Where do you live?” consider a shift like, “What do you love about where you live?” Notice when people bring elements into a conversation that aren't related to the topic. These clues, especially online, can point to entry points for emotional connection. Supercommunicators pay just a bit more attention to how people communicate than the rest of us. A slight shift can make a big difference.
