Description

Hook: Conversation is a teachable superpower that shapes careers, friendships, and mental health. This condensed 7-minute version of a 3-hour episode with host Steven Bartlett and Harvard behavioral scientist Alison Wood Brooks delivers research-backed communication tools fast. Learn practical tactics for anxiety (reframe “I’m excited”), negotiation (prepare alternatives, ask the right questions), apologies (own it and promise change), small talk (climb the topic ladder), question-asking (use follow-ups), de-escalation (validation and hedging), and building male friendship through vulnerability. We also cover AI’s impact on authenticity and actionable exercises like the “10 Questions to Fall in Like” and the TALK framework for teaching conversation. Ideal for leaders, negotiators, parents, and anyone interested in psychology, communication, and productivity. Listen now to get the key ideas in minutes.
