Ep 23: Read Me Wrong: The Science (and Chaos) of First Impressions
In this engaging and reflective episode, we dive deep into the psychology and real-life messiness of first impressions. From that one time someone ghosted after a “perfect” first date to misjudging a future best friend based on an awkward hello, we explore how quickly our brains form judgments and how often they're completely off. Blending science with personal storytelling and pop-culture-worthy observations, the episode unpacks why we get stuck on initial vibes, what those impressions really say about us, and how to navigate the social world with more grace, curiosity, and second chances. It’s funny, a little chaotic, and surprisingly hopeful because even when we mess it up, there’s always room to see someone (or be seen) more clearly the second time around.
