Are you having a hard time making friends as an adult? Speed friending events are popping up across LA to help folks connect. Balboa Island's ferry has been making the trip back and forth across the harbor since 1919, but new state environmental mandates may sink it. Near LA, DDT is contaminating an area of the seafloor that's larger than the city of San Francisco. Scientists and policymakers are racing to find solutions.

#030 - Do you leave a networking event or a conference with a stack of business cards but not much connection? That's because most of our conversations are limited to small talk and stay on the surface.In this episode, experience designer, facilitator, TEDx speaker and small-talk detoxer Jan Keck shares his advice on facilitating conversations that go deeper whilst building trust and connection.In this episode:Having genuine curiosity as a facilitatorPrioritising connection over contentFacilitating silenceIce-melters over ice-breakersStarting conversations like starting a campfireand much more!ShownotesConnect with Janwww.jankeck.comwww.linkedin.com/in/jankeck/www.instagram.com/mrjankeckFree app of Jan's conversation starter cardshttp://app.askdeepquestions.comGoogle's research on psychological safetyhttps://rework.withgoogle.com/guides/understanding-team-effectiveness/steps/foster-psychological-safety/Follow Design Feeling on social!

Making new connections can be tough. And quick moments of interaction with strangers aren't the greatest opportunities to make friends. But let's be real, friendships are the essence of a rich and fulfilling life. So how do we get more intentional and step out of our own way? In this episode, we chat with Ashley Kirsner, Founder of Skip the Small Talk, about constructing intentional spaces for people to come together, explore their comfort zones, and potentially develop relationships. We all start as outsiders seeking community, but with an encouraging pep talk, some self-compassion, and a flexible mindset, strangers can become acquainted. Ashley believes in the efficacy of high-quality person-to-person interaction for improving psychological health. Learn more about her work here and connect with her on Instagram.    I'd love to hear who you want me to chat with next, let me know on Instagram.  You can book a private friendship coaching session here. Book Danielle Bayard Jackson -- friendship expert and educator-- to speak at your event. Join our monthly book club. This month: ”The Measure” is the book.  Lastly, to submit your own "Girl Problems" question, visit our website OR leave Danielle a voice note (this woman loves a good voice note!) on Instagram @daniellebayardjackson. So, you go out, do activities you enjoy, and are still having a hard time finding your tribe. You may start to wonder…Where are all the cool girls at? Is it me? Am I trying too hard? Maybe not hard enough? Bridging the gap between friendly ‘hellos' to ‘hey, I think you're really cool and that we could be great friends' is tough, especially with the ability to revert into the pocket-sized digital abyss just a finger-tap away. Ashley Kirsner, Founder of “Skip the Small Talk”, and Danielle Bayard Jackson, your resident friendship expert, shares some key pointers on how to overcome conversations that may feel anxiety-inducing, to help you enjoy the long-lasting friendships that are waiting on the other side. Be Your Own Hype Woman You know what they say, practice makes perfect. And in this case, the practice extends to the work that you do before you enter the room. Set the tone from the beginning – look in the mirror (or not) and give yourself a real pep talk. Lean into the mental prep work before going out so that the experience doesn't feel like a daunting task to check off of your to-do list. This isn't something that you've got to get through, it's a unique experience that you deserve to be fully present for. And maybe you'll get a few funny stories to share out of it. Nothing is perfect. Not you, not me, and not them. Give yourself some grace. Shower in self-compassion. No interaction will go perfectly smoothly, and that's okay. You may be a little awkward, but 9 times out of 10, so will the person you're talking to. Remaining mindful and aware that nobody knows what to do can ease the stress of keeping up appearances. You're allowed to feel bored, excited, annoyed, or nervous, and you don't need to attack or resolve those feelings right away. Initiate conversations to learn more about yourself, and others. Give Yourself Permission. Deeper interactions are intentional and inherently vulnerable. Sometimes we can get in our own way, confining ourselves into a mindset of what friendship should look like or how it should develop. When meeting new people, allow the conversation to unfold naturally, revealing itself to you. Focus on the process and your actions of engagement more than others. Focusing on yourself gives you, in social-psychological terms, an internal locus of control that can act as a safety blanket in moments of awkward silence or discomfort. Success doesn't have to mean leaving with your soul mate or next BFF. It can be the small wins of continuing to share connections, experiences, and quirky facts with people who are there to listen. You deserve to have amazing, fruitful friendships in your life. Ashley Kirsner, Founder of “Skip the Small Talk”, and Danielle Bayard Jackson, your resident friendship expert hope that you find loads of value from this episode. And don't forget, #AskHerOutAlready is in full effect. We want to see those pictures and read the stories.

On tonight's edition of the Other Side of Midnight: Frank borrows former Governor David Patterson's idea for a segment and calls it "The Other Side of Governors Island" in which he has two callers debate each other on a topic and designates a side for each caller to argue.

Furthermore, Frank shuffles the deck with Brent Johnson, Reporter for NJ Advance Media's Statehouse Bureau in Trenton for the AC Report. Later, Frank skips the small talk and discusses the news of the day with Brian Kilmeade, New York Times best-selling author, co-host of Fox and Friends on Fox News and a radio talk show host heard every morning from 10am-Noon on 77WABC.

In today's episode of Let's Talk Facilitation, I share with you my top five strategies for building real community in class. In last week's episode, I talked about the importance of students experiencing belonging as a central factor in their willingness (or lack thereof) to engage in your class, and I talked in detail about how to position the cultivation of belonging as a cornerstone of your pedagogy. How do we inspire feelings of belonging? Through community building. Today I am following up with the concrete, tangible, practical steps you can take to build community in your class. If you have been struggling to get your students to do the work, to show up to class, and to participate in your discussions and activities, you are going to want to listen to last week's and this week's episodes! My top five community-building strategies share a number of qualities in common. They all… Center opportunities for meaningful relationship building Are humanizing Allow you and your students to see one another as real people Provide space for building genuine connections Provide support for vulnerability, which is key to developing trust Here's what these strategies don't do: They don't… Involve silly games Force impersonal activities Keep everything surface level Require a performance Privilege small talk Make shy students miserable Instead, the practices I'm talking about are purposeful and strategic. They are designed to support the kind of relationships that enable students to show up to class and be valued as their authentic selves. Enjoy! FREE BONUSES In today's episode, I talk about establishing and using group norms as part of the process of building community in your class. If you'd like some ideas of how such group norms might be described, you can download a copy of my FREE PDFs “Sample Class Discussion Guidelines Statement” and “Sample Anti-Racist Discussion Guidelines Statement”.

We talk about the paradoxical dynamic that is Generation Y and Generation Z being the most connected and loneliest generations alive. We talk about the MBTI and the fundamental attribution error. We discuss how in a context of intimate conversation, judging a book by its cover reliably produces an inaccurate picture of others. We talk about the relationship of alcohol to friendship formation.

We explore a recently published research paper on Skip the Small Talk that bears out its health effects. We discuss the meaning of community and the science of group feels. We talk about how community projects like STST are helping fill the community hole left by the diminishment of religion.

Apparently, 20 hours of work wasn't enough time to make him as skilled at the job as an employee with two years of experience...who knew?!

6 million views on her Tedx talk 'How to skip the small talk and connect with anyone', founder of BigTalk, traveled around the world and back, and it all started with feeling lonely as a Freshman at Northeastern Universty. Kalina Silverman was a normal freshman experiences the struggles of freshman year of college. She seemed to have a ton of friends and was meeting a bunch of people, yet she often felt lonely and disconnected from those around her. For her journalism class project at the end of the year, she decided to do her paper on the freshman year struggle. To her surprise, when posting in the class Facebook group asking if people wanting to share their struggles, hundreds of people responded. Kalina started to have very deep conversations with these people and started feeling extremely connected with others. She realized she wasn't alone in her struggle. Then the idea for Big Talk hit her - skipping the small talk and going straight to the important conversations of life. With this idea, she has lead workshops around the world for Fortune 500 companies, military veterans, schools, and more. She has a done a 12 month Fulbright research experiment in Singapore to see how Big Talk can help easy cultural differences.
