116: The FINE Art of Small Talk

Smart Dating Academy - The Podcast

This episode is for EVERYONE -- single, coupled, introverted & extroverted!! Bela talks with best-selling author Debra Fine, about HOW to make 'small talk' and WHY it's so important! You'll hear:

• Small talk is a SKILL - not a gift the lucky were born with
• How Debra, an introverted engineer, realized she did not know how to interact with people at work conferences
• How she thought losing 75 lbs would 'make her better' at small talk, but it didn't
• Why Rex, and one conversation, changed EVERYTHING for her
• How to "be prepared" - and feel great before any conversation
• Why "what keeps you busy" is a WAY better question than "what do you do?"
• How to look for 'free info' that people give away about themselves
• How to BE a good conversationalist (being an 'introvert' is no excuse)
• How she met the love of her life - and WHY she knew he was the one
• How to exit conversations with the "wrap up" rule - so no one holds you hostage!
