Differentiating Between Interviews and Conversations

In the podcast episode, the distinction between interviews and conversations is highlighted. Unlike interviews where the goal is to spotlight the other person, conversations involve active participation from both parties. While an interview focuses on understanding the interviewee, a conversation thrives on mutual engagement. This difference influences how the interactions unfold, with interviews often leading to more in-depth personal revelations and emotional connections.
