Why do some communities create genuine belonging while others feel like mandatory meetings with snacks?

Jeffrey Davis joins me to discuss three books on building actual community rather than just collecting people in a room. We discuss the five types of conversations that create belonging, why isolation literally damages your genes + how starlings only sync with their seven closest neighbours. Relatable.

Plus, the difference between five-sense friends and screen friends + why forcing people to be nice to each other actually works.

Look for more Book Huddles where experts share the books that shaped their thinking.

Books discussed in this episode:
