This episode is about how we have limited opportunities to really make conversation count, so why not speak to the highest place in people and watch them light up.  I discuss the skillful ways of doing this without seeming fawning, manipulative or churning with agenda.  Then I give you conversational tools that make people love talking to you...only to then show you how it's better to forget all that and be spontaneous (but, this time, with intent).  You can learn how letting the other person shine is an empowered position.  Or just be entertained with stories of me bartending with social anxiety, how I avoided dealing with my deficiencies by keeping my head buried in snobbery, and the hilariously simple truths that woke me from my fever dream of neurosis.
