The Secrets to Small Talk You Were Never Taught

Описание: Small talk isn’t just meaningless chatter—it’s the secret to building connections, making great first impressions, and feeling confident in any social situation. And I learned this the best way possible: by watching my mum. She has a way of making people feel comfortable, listened to, and valued in just a few minutes of conversation. Growing up, I picked up on her techniques without even realizing it, and in this video, I’m sharing the small talk secrets that nobody teaches you.

We’ll cover:
✅ Why great small talk is all about focusing on the other person (and how to do it naturally).
✅ How telling stories—even short ones—keeps conversations interesting and memorable.
✅ The #1 mindset shift that helps you leave people feeling great after every interaction.

If small talk has ever felt awkward or forced, I promise these tips will change the way you approach conversations. Let’s make small talk work for you!
