Never say negative comments about yourself, because your brain will soak it up like a sponge. You are speaking what you say into existence. Only say positive things. 🩷

That’s because you are a deep thinker. I bet when you meet someone who is on your level, the conversation will be super interesting! ❤️

I just learned about an app called “Gleam.” I haven’t downloaded it but I hear it helps.

If I was at a party and saw an awkward person there, that’s the person I’d want to talk to! 🥰

I can fully relate. I hate small talk. What do you mean I’m supposed to discuss the weather as an “icebreaker”?
“Yes, Susan, it sure is raining.”
Excellent. Two functioning adults have independently confirmed the presence of water falling from the sky. Riveting.
Now that we’ve conquered meteorology, can we skip ahead to whether free will exists, what happens after death, and the meaning of life? Or do I have to comment
on the humidity first? 😂

Try this, find something interesting about the person you are talking to. Example. If they are wearing earrings that seem old, like an heirloom. Mention that, then let that conversation just kind of ramble. People love to talk about themselves. So give them a topic and let them do the work.

Same girl! From an early age I was terribly at starting a conversation but ok when continuing when someone started it. lol I'm a grandfather now and still can't start a conversation at all. I'm great to talk to if you start the convo. Stick with it and read a lot so you'll be interesting to talk to even if you don't start it. Today there are probably inprov groups to help you learn.

Girl just don’t do it. I don’t and tbh it makes me better friends and better connections. It weeds out the boring and the rude and the judgemental.

All you have to do is, be you, because you are amazing. Give yourself a little more credit. Remember what you talked about, in a recent video about the power of our 🧠 brains? Keep in mind, it's not that deep. You're Kaylee, you got this, you're a bada$$. ✌️✌️

The idea of a "Duolingo for social skills" might sound strange at first, but apps built on this exact concept—like Gleam or Talkpal—already exist, and the way they turn conversation into bite-sized "lessons" is pretty clever.

I’m in my 60’s and it can be hard. But if you want to small talk say something to an older person that is shopping at the grocery store for example. Say anything. I’m not sure about this meat. What do you think? Or my goodness isn’t the price of meat high. Normally that simple question will help you with small talk and leave your heart full in the process because sometimes they/we need some interaction ourselves.

I’ll use this video as an example. You and I are talking to one another. I notice you are wearing a watch with a lavender band. I’ll simply say, I’ve not seen a watch with a lavender band before… where did you get it? That will parlay into the kind of watch it is, what you use it for etc. you track steps, heart rates etc because you are a long distance runner. I can let you talk for 5 minutes about things you love to do, and all I did was mention the color of the band.

ok so i do too...but the best interactions for me is if they know. I might just sit there and say nothing, but they know that. The worst feeling is "I should be able to do this".
