ABOUT THIS WEEK’S GUEST:
America is facing a loneliness epidemic, which is known to cause a whole host of physical and mental health problems, however studies show that having structured, vulnerable conversations reduces loneliness, social anxiety, and improves symptoms of depression.
To encourage more rewarding interactions in everyday life, Ashley Kirsner founded Skip the Small Talk, a popular social event based on her social and clinical psychology research, where strangers become friends through the power of conversation.
Skip the Small Talk has since taken the nation —and world—by storm, holding monthly events in 19 cities across the country, making waves overseas in Edinburgh, London, and Paris, and has been featured on the Today Show, NPR’s WBUR, Forbes, and more.
Now, you can deepen existing bonds, start new friendships and discuss the things that matter most with the SKIP THE SMALL TALK CARD DECK, a conversation card deck providing a fun and easy way to strengthen relationships and interact more genuinely with friends, loved ones and acquaintances.
