Long description:
Deepen existing bonds, start new friendships, and discuss the things that really matter most with this conversation card deck providing a fun and easy way to skip the small talk.
At the nationwide events hosted by the company Skip the Small Talk, strangers come together to make connections through interpersonal conversations. Now, with Skip the Small Talk Card Deck, everyone can practice flexing their metaphorical “vulnerability muscle” directly with friends, loved ones, and acquaintances.
Founder and CEO Ashley Kirsner’s methodology, backed by her social and clinical psychology research, is summarized in a useful guidebook which sets up the science and ground rules of the approach. The 100 cards, each featuring a thought-provoking question, start conversations about the most important things in life&&&8212;helping you form new friendships and deepen existing bonds.
Studies consistently prove that structured, vulnerable conversations reduce loneliness and social anxiety, encourage self-disclosure, improve mindfulness skills, and even lessen symptoms of depression. So, grab a friend (and maybe a snack!), turn off your phone, flip a card, and start turning small talk into big talk.
"I had the great fortune of participating in a Skip the Small Talk in-person event a couple of years ago. Like many participants, I found the carefully curated experience of vulnerable sharing with strangers to be invigorating and deeply meaningful. I remember wishing that the questions that served as prompts that could have been made available for later use with my friends, family, students, colleagues, and others. My wish has come true! This remarkable deck is a powerful tool for social connection and, indeed, social transformation. Close relationships will become closer. Strangers will become friends. Greater self-discovery is guaranteed. The short instruction booklet should be required reading even without the card deck. Life is short, let&&&39;s skip the small talk!"
