In this episode of the Become More Compelling podcast, I brought back Nick Gray, author of The 2-Hour Cocktail Party.

You'll hear us cover a lot, including why in-person connection still matters, and what it actually takes to build strong friendships as an adult.

We talk about the role of humor in conversations. We get into why having a personal website isn't optional if you want to control your online and AI-based reputation.

We talk about how Nick met his wife, how saying yes changed his life, and how the friendship recession is affecting almost everyone (even if they don't realize it). We also get into AI tools and book related stuff.

Enjoy!
