When in Doubt, Reach Out: The Science of Social Connection

When in Doubt, Reach Out: The Science of Social Connection

Most of us know we should reach out more — call the friend, chat with the stranger, strike up the conversation. And yet we hold back. Why? Behavioral scientist Nicholas Epley has spent decades studying this gap between what we know and what we do, and his findings are both surprising and encouraging: connecting with others almost always goes better than we expect — and the payoff for our happiness and health is enormous. His book is A Little More Social: How Small Choices Create Unexpected Happiness, Health, and Connection. And in the second half of the show, physical therapist Dr. Milica McDowell and chiropractor Dr. Courtney Conley join us with big ideas from Walk: Rediscover the Most Natural Way to Boost Your Health and Longevity―One Step at a Time. 🎁 Save 20% on a Next Big Idea Club membership when you use code PODCAST at nextbigideaclub.com ✉️ Get big ideas in your inbox with our daily newsletter.
