Brian Galke is an expert in decoding facial features and using them to enhance communication and connections with others. He has a deep passion for understanding people and helping them build better relationships.  In this episode, Brian starts off by sharing an interesting tip on how to learn more about someone. He suggests asking them about their next vacation plans, as it reveals their interests and priorities. This simple question can open up a world of understanding about a person. Brian also talks about his work in physiognomy, the interpretation of facial features to gain insights into a person's character. He has a cheat sheet available for download on his website, subtleskills.com, for those who want to learn more. He also gives a sneak peek into his upcoming book series on face reading that covers basic, intermediate, and advanced levels. Throughout the conversation, Brian and I discussed the importance of face-to-face communication in a technology-driven world. We highlight the significance of tailoring our communication based on the preferences of others, such as taking into account their eyebrow type. Brian explains that straight eyebrows prefer facts and details, angled eyebrows focus on angles and perspectives, and rounded eyebrows prioritize others' needs first. As an Introverted/Extrovert, Brian purposely chose professions where people came to him for help (Retail, Hospitality, & Help Desk) to help ease his social anxiety. Over the course of his career he realized he loved to learn new skills (tips and tricks) to better interact with people, and he always sought out the knowledge. With every new social skill, another promotion soon followed. He was onto something…maybe success starts with good communication skills. The #1 skill that changed his Personal & Professional life forever was learning to Decode Facial Features. Connect With Brian: www.getthecheatsheet.com Looking to up your Follow Up Game?

We also delve into the different types of trusts, including business trusts, beneficial trusts, senior trusts, noncharitable trusts, and real estate syndication trusts.

Welcome to the Meet Cool People podcast! I'm your host, Ely Delaney, and I'm thrilled to have you here. Meeting cool people has always been a huge part of my life, and this podcast is a culmination of that passion. On this show, we'll be connecting with amazing individuals from all over the world. As a speaker and traveler, I've had the privilege of meeting countless fascinating people. But my favorite way to get to know them is by breaking bread and sharing a meal or a cup of coffee. There's something about face-to-face conversations that allow us to truly understand who someone is, what they do, and how they make an impact on their audience. Many of the people I've met started out as casual connections, turned into clients, and eventually became lifelong friends. Some of these friendships have lasted for decades, and I'm excited to share their stories with you. In today's digitally-connected world, we have the power to have conversations with people from different continents in a single day. However, we often lack meaningful connections on a personal level. That's what I aim to change with Meet Cool People. I encourage you to listen to these episodes and binge-watch if you can. If someone resonates with you, reach out to them and let them know you heard them on the podcast. Share what specific insights or ideas struck a chord with you. Standing out from the crowd and having a genuine connection with them can open doors you never imagined. I firmly believe that the people you meet are the key to your success. It all starts with a good conversation. So go out there and have an amazing day. And remember, I'm here to support you in any way I can. Feel free to reach out with your thoughts and ideas on how these amazing individuals impact your life and help you meet more cool people. Take care and enjoy the show!
