5 ways to move past small talk faster:
01 — Skip "What do you do?" Try: "What's been on your mind lately?"
02 — Share first. Go slightly deeper than expected. They'll often match your level.
03 — Follow the energy, not the topic. When their eyes light up—ask more about THAT.
04 — Use "What" and "How" instead of Yes/No questions.
05 — Name the elephant. "I'm not great at small talk—can we skip to the good stuff?"
The truth: Small talk isn't the enemy. Staying there is.
Real connection is on the other side. These tips get you there faster.
Save this for your next conversation.
