Conversational Psychology (CONNECTING WITH OTHERS) with Nicholas Epley

So this is a very special bonus episode of Ology's brought to you by Verbo with limited interruptions. Thank you to Verbo. So today we're talking about how the environment shapes the way we communicate and connect, and honestly. It's about getting out of the house. And just connecting with human beings. They're not in a comment section, they're in front of your face. Believe it or not.

Millions of years of evolution has prepared you to connect. Face to face with loved ones. And with strangers. It's just what the doctor ordered. We're gonna talk to an actual PhD who's written a book about it. And as it turns out, this is why shaking up your routine and seeing new places, being in new spaces meeting new people or connecting

back with people in your life is so vital for our brains and our culture. The spaces we're in can really change how we open up and how we share stories and how we bond with each other. It's a big reason why taking time away, especially traveling together, can feel so different. And Vermo makes it easy to bring your people together in one shared space. They work hard to get everything right before you arrive. And if something goes wrong, Verbo Care and their 247 support team are there to help. The people on your trip are full of surprises. Not your Virgo. Book your next day on the Verbo app. Oh hey, it's the seventy nine year old guy in the elevator who looks like sixty. Ali Ward. Let's connect, you and me.
