#28 Authentic Conversations With Anyone: Valuable Lessons From Our Men's Circle

Ever wondered why it seems so hard to have an authentic conversation #realtalk with one of your friends, a family member or maybe even a stranger you've just met? Then this episode is for you!

In this episode we not only discuss why it can seem so hard to finally see and really talk each other through the thick surface of small talk, people pleasing, playing a role and so on, but ALSO how we can foster more of these spaces and what we can do to be more authentic in our environment and with the people we interact with.

Not every talk needs to be deep talk or real talk, but it can be a powerful tool to discover and learn the ability to jump into these conversations, as we believe they help us establish real connections with one another.
