Episode description

Connection - it’s one of our 6 psychological needs. As humans, our need for connection to self and to others is one of our drivers for what we do, say and feel every single day.

I have 11 different responses you could answer with, plus the feelings wheel to help you go deep. There’s also 10 different questions you can ask other than ‘How are you?’ to create meaningful conversation and connection, whether that’s at the dinner table or in the work place.
