Episode notes
Be Careful Correcting People’s Personal Issues
- Do avoid publicly shaming someone for medical conditions like halitosis; anonymous confrontation can harm more than help.
- Do consider gentler, empathetic approaches and realize some issues are medical and not solvable by a single correction.
Bad Breath Sparks A Business Idea
- Eric describes meeting a man with what he called the worst breath he'd ever smelled at an event, which sparked a business idea.
- He proposed an anonymous $70 Canadian service to notify people about offensive personal habits via burner phones.
Think Twice Before Doing Anonymous Interventions
- Try creating a harmless anonymous service only after weighing harm and consent; anonymous alerts can hurt people who already know their problem.
- Do prioritize empathy and seek permission before intervening in someone's personal hygiene or behavior.
