Sharing our stories and experiences makes conversations more personal and more interesting, and helps build relationships. Sharing our personal, significant experiences is an effective way to engage with others and to learn about ourselves and each other. In this course, psychologists Eve Ash and Peter Quarry meet new people and show how sharing personal stories can make conversations more interesting and engaging, and build emotional connections.
