ANECDOTE

A Flight, French Toast, And A Bad Day Turnaround

  • The mishaps cascade into dashed plans with his dad and general misery that the brothers turn around with live show energy.
ADVICE

Signal Clearly When You Turn Around Running

  • When you run and hit your turnaround point near another runner, use a clear non-threatening gesture or words so they don't think you're racing them.
  • Keep tone friendly and avoid passing with aggressive body language to prevent misinterpretation.
ADVICE

Cut Food Upfront To Avoid Table Awkwardness

  • At slow family meals, keep busy by cutting food into bite-sized pieces up front so you can eat quickly without disrupting the flow.
  • Offer to prep plates or create small amuse-bouches to stay engaged and reduce awkward idle time.
