Our best relationships rely on connection, the ability to vibe with somebody else.

My name is Matt Abrahams, and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.

Welcome to Think Fast, Talk Smart, the podcast.

Today, I am super excited to speak with Adam Grant.

Adam is an organizational psychologist and top -rated professor at the Wharton School.

He has written several best -selling books, such as Think Again and Hidden Potential.

His latest book is Vive, The Secrets of Strong Connections in a Lonely World.

Beyond his academic research on motivation and workplace dynamics, he hosts the TED podcast, Rethinking.

It should be in everybody's queue.

Well, welcome, Adam.

I have long admired your work and have enjoyed my conversations with many of your Wharton colleagues,

Katie Milkman, Angela Duckworth, Wendy De La Rosa, and Jonah Berger.

It's really exciting for me to meet you personally here.

Thank you.

Well, I'll try to live up to that.

Great to be here, Matt.

Thank you.

Shall we get started?

Bring it on.

All right.

I'd like to initiate a conversation around public speaking and communication.

In your book, Hidden Potential, you share the story of how you went from a terrified to confident public speaker.

Can you share what that anxiety was like for you

and how you successfully learned to manage the anxiety to become a great, well -known, and well -sought -after speaker?

Well, sharing the anxiety part is easy.

I have vivid memories of knowing

that I was going to have to get up in front of people and just shaking physically.

I could see my hands moving.

I couldn't control it.

I was so jittery.

Usually that was the first cue actually is I would see it before I felt it.

And then I would notice that my heart was racing.

It felt like it was going to beat right out of my chest,

I would notice that my breathing would get fast and shallow like I just finished a sprint.

And not only was it making me not want to get up in front of an audience,

I didn't feel like I could deliver a coherent sentence because I couldn't catch my breath.

And I felt like the only way to get through it,

Matt, was just to rehearse it so often that my body had to get used to it.

I wanted to put myself through a form of, I guess, exposure therapy.

So the only thing

I could think to do was to put myself in a situation where the stakes were both higher

and lower at the same time.

So I was in grad school at the time

and I knew I was going to have to start teaching my own classes and I was terrified.

So I volunteered to give guest lectures for my friends' classes.

And on the one hand, that was much scarier.

because I only had a 30 or 60 minute window to try to get through to these students.

And they were gonna judge me just by that performance.

I didn't have then the rest of the semester to recover

if I stumbled or if I sounded like I was Darth Vader because I was breathing so heavily.

But on the other hand, these students didn't have any real say over my future.

They weren't gonna hate my class and tank my teaching evaluations

and undermine my ability to get a lecturing job in the future or a professorship in the future.

And so I thought, okay, this is the perfect place to practice because I was under pressure.

But at the end of the day, it didn't really matter.

And a few friends were kind enough to say yes.

And after every guest lecture, I gave out feedback forms.

And I said, tell me what you'd like to see repeated.

And more importantly, what I should change.

and some of the comments were not friendly.

I remember one of them said, you're so nervous, you're causing us to physically shake in our seats.

Only much later did I think, wow, I have a form of telekinesis.

Not fun at the time.

And then there was a student who wrote that I was

so awkward on stage that I reminded them of a Muppet and they never even told me which Muppet.

Maybe you can help me with that.

Yeah, I immediately thought of Animal, the one who's frenetic and always moving.

I could see that.

I was thinking it might be the sweetest chef.

But something really interesting happened, Matt, as I went through this.

Not only did I stop having mild panic attacks as I repeatedly got in front of audiences,

but I also discovered that I had already put myself in the worst case scenario.

What is somebody going to say about my teaching that's worse than And your anxiety is contagious.

And you remind me of a Muppet.

And so I felt like at that point, I had nothing to lose.

And as I got a little bit less uncomfortable, I started cracking more jokes.

I started being a little bit more spontaneous and responding to the energy in the room.

And I had a better connection with the audience.

And the vibe improved.

built my confidence up.

And so I think what I learned from

that experience was in the first semester where I was afraid to get on any stage,

I felt like I needed to wait until I'd built my confidence in order to take action.

And I realized I had that backward.

I needed to take the action in order to build my confidence.

And it was through doing the reps, putting myself in that situation where I did not want to be there,

where I just felt the butterflies constantly, that I ended up earning the confidence to keep doing it.

Do it and then reflect on it, I think is a really powerful way to address the fear of speaking in front of others.

And I really appreciate that idea of finding situations that have high stakes,

but at the same time aren't so critical that a bad performance can lead to devastating consequences.

So it's really the exposure therapy that helped you get through that.

But I also noticed a cognitive shift you got out of your head

and you got into the room where you were paying attention to what was happening and responding to it.

A lot of nervous speakers are inside their own head,

replaying what's happening for them or they should be saying or could have been saying instead of actually connecting outside.

I'll be curious when we talk about your new book,

if this experience helped you become curious about connecting and the ways in which we can connect and relate to others.

Two things that just jumped out at me.

One, I think the ideal stakes for practice are stressful in the moment, but no lasting cost.

100

And so it feels like it might be embarrassing in the present, but you're not going to carry it with you into your future.

101

I think that's the situation in which you want to practice or dip your toe in the water.

102

And then, yeah, that experience definitely got me curious about how to form connection because

103

I had all these ideas I was passionate about.

104

I was excited to get to know my students and build relationships with them.

105

But I didn't know how to cross that bridge when it was me with a sea of invisible faces.

106

And I think that for me, the intermediate step in that journey was then to say, okay, I've now gotten comfortable being uncomfortable.

107

And I hope that I'm not going to change my first nature, as Brian Little, one of my favorite psychologists would call it.

108

I am an introvert physiologically.

109

I am shy.

110

But I want to make this second nature.

111

I want to expand my comfort zone so

112

that this feels like something I can do regularly and not freak out about for weeks in advance.

113

So my comfort zone started to expand, but then the hurdles got bigger.

114

I had to speak for audiences that were more terrifying.

115

I had to get in front of US Army and Air Force generals.

116

I had to start giving TED Talks.

117

And I also had to start teaching classes that were very short.

118

I had 225 students in just a week.

119

And I didn't have time to get to know them and build relationships with him like I'd always done.

120

And so every time my comfort zone expanded, the challenge expanded and I was kind of in the deep end, treading water all over again.

121

And those consistent challenges really gave me a crash course in saying, you know what, the worst case scenario is I'm gonna embarrass myself again.

122

And then I'm gonna have great material for future learning and teaching.

123

So that's a huge cognitive reframe there, that this is something that I can learn from versus something I have to endure and survive.

124

I find it interesting that you say you had to do these things.

125

I think it's awesome that you got to do those things to share your knowledge with folks.

126

I wanna come back to the idea that feedback played a critical role in your getting comfortable speaking in front of others.

127

You were very specific in the feedback you asked for.

128

You didn't just say, how'd I do?

129

Talk to me about the role that feedback played for you in your journey,

130

but how feedback can play in all of our journeys as we learn to connect and engage with others better.

131

So I've come to believe that feedback is overrated and advice is underrated when it comes to learning.

132

And I didn't know that I was doing this at the time, but I'll tell you a quick story from the Air Force experience.

133

Fast forward a couple years, I've started teaching my own classes, and I get a call from the U .S.

134

Air Force.

135

And they say, we're looking for somebody to teach leadership to our generals and colonels, you came recommended, would you do it?

136

And Matt, I felt massively unqualified.

137

I looked at the bios of these

138

Air Force leaders.

139

I did not have thousands of flying hours.

140

I did not have hundreds of thousands of troops under my command.

141

I didn't have a multi -billion dollar budget.

142

But I had never served my country before.

143

And I felt like I had a responsibility to say yes.

144

So I did.

145

And it was even more intimidating than I had feared when I walked in.

146

It looked like a scene out of Top Gun.

147

And the Air Force leaders, instead of names on their name cards, they had their call signs.

148

So staring me down are gunner and striker and bomber.

149

And I felt like what I had to do was prove myself to these people.

150

So I started talking about my credentials and my expertise and all the research I'd done.

151

And I got the feedback forms afterward.

152

And they were brutal.

153

One of the Air Force leaders had written, there was more knowledge in the audience than on the podium.

154

Wow.

155

Fact.

156

Yeah.

157

And then I pulled out another one and it said, I gained very little from this session, but I trust the instructor got useful insight.

158

Dagger to the heart.

159

I remember reading that and Googling, can humans learn to hibernate like bears?

160

I wanted to crawl into a hole for months.

161

I wanted to quit my job and never walk in front of another military audience again.

162

I had a problem.

163

I had already committed to doing another session with a group of Air Force leaders.

164

It was about a week later.

165

And as a matter of principle, I follow through on my commitments.

166

So what could I do?

167

I didn't know this at the time, but research has come out in the last few years showing

168

that we actually learn more from other people if instead of seeking their feedback, we ask for their advice.

169

And the reason for that is feedback is backward looking.

170

It tells you what you did wrong yesterday.

171

And that's clearly what these

172

Air Force leaders had done for me.

173

Whereas advice is forward -looking.

174

It gives you specific actionable guidance around what you can change to do better tomorrow.

175

And that's exactly what I ended up finding when I thought, okay, I don't know what to do.

176

All I could think to do was to go back to the Air Force leaders who crucified me.

177

But I asked them a different question.

178

Instead of giving me feedback, I said, I need suggestions.

179

I have to do this again.

180

What advice do you have for me next time?

181

And I got very different responses from them.

182

I got comments about changes I could make, and some of them had to do with content,

183

which was, that was just useless for me because I had already crammed everything I knew about leadership into my four hours,

184

and I did not have time to fully reboot it.

185

But a few of the comments I got revolved around the way that I introduced myself to the audience.

186

And one of the Air Force leaders said, look, we can all tell that you're junior.

187

Why don't you just call out the elephant in the room?

188

And I thought, what do I have to lose?

189

So I walked in front of the next group of Air Force leaders.

190

I stared them down and I said, I know what you're thinking right now.

191

What could I possibly learn from a professor who's 12 years old?

192

It was crickets.

193

But after what felt like an eternity, one of the Air Force leaders, I'm going to call him

194

Sand Dune because that was his call sign.

195

He jumped in and he said, that's ridiculous.

196

You look like you're at least 13.

197

And everybody laughed at that and it broke the ice.

198

And I more or less thought the same material, but I had taken myself off a pedestal that I didn't belong on.

199

And afterward, the comments were completely different.

200

One of my favorite ones said, you know, the professors seem to get younger every year.

201

or is it that we're getting older?

202

Either way, it was nice to learn about how to motivate millennials from someone who's almost young enough to be one.

203

And although junior in experience, Adam dealt with the evidence in an interesting way.

204

And Matt, it was a great lesson for me about showing a little humility and being willing to laugh at myself,

205

but also in taking the very people who gave me useless,

206

demoralizing feedback, seeking their advice and discovering they actually had a lot to teach me.

207

I think your call sign would be suggestions, question mark.

208

It's so true.

209

I appreciate several things that you said.

210

One, that it's really important to seek advice, which is prospective versus feedback, which is retrospective.

211

And that's really important.

212

And how you ask for that advice matters.

213

But you also gave us a really important lesson about how you start communication.

214

Many of us lead with strength, with competence.

215

And in fact, connection and warmth can be really important.

216

And the joke you made really, I think, sounds like transformed the experience.

217

So I appreciate you sharing that too.

218

Well, thank you.

219

It's something I've continued to do every time I give a speech or have a conversation in front of an audience.

220

I will take anybody I can find afterward and first invite them to be critics and tell me,

221

like zero to 10, what would you rate that?

222

and it's almost never does anybody give a 10.

223

And at that point, even if they say, whether it's a three and a half or a nine,

224

they have admitted there is something I could do that needs improvement.

225

And so I say, okay, you gave me a score.

226

It wasn't a 10.

227

What can I do to get closer to 10?

228

And that's where the advice starts to come into play.

229

And I don't want to over -index on everyone's comments, but...

230

If I hear the same theme from multiple people independently, I'm going to take that as a useful signal.

231

And one thing that comes up repeatedly when I ask people how to get closer to 10 is the introduction really matters.

232

Yeah.

233

And striking that balance between showing confidence and signaling that you're competent, but also making a real connection with the audience is not always easy.

234

I'd like to turn our attention to your current book, your new book, Vibe.

235

It's all about how we connect with others and how wrong we often are about the assumptions we have around communicating.

236

How do you know if you're vibing with someone?

237

My kids tell me somebody my age can't even use the word vibing.

238

But how do you know if you're vibing with someone?

239

Yeah, my 15 -year -old told me to stop saying vibe because I was ruining the word.

240

I actually think there's a paradox, which is similar to when you're in a flow state.

241

You often don't notice your vibing until after the fact

242

because you're so immersed in the conversation that you weren't even thinking about it.

243

And I think that is probably the most basic sign that you're vibing with somebody else is the conversation was so delightful.

244

It was so absorbing that time flew.

245

You lost track of where you were, maybe even who you were.

246

And afterward, you kind of marveled at, wow, we really clicked.

247

I think that if you wanted to get more precise about knowing when you're vibing, If you were a neuroscientist,

248

you could actually measure people's brainwaves and heartbeats synchronizing.

249

That's a sign that people are experiencing chemistry in the moment.

250

And then over time, you would discover that every time you interact, it brings you closer, even if you're not always having the most pleasant interaction.

251

So for me, one of the strongest signs

252

that you're vibing with somebody is that you can have an argument with them and come away feeling like, I understood them better.

253

I trust them more.

254

I like them more, even though we didn't agree.

255

Are there things that we can do to increase the likelihood that we vibe,

256

especially in a world where a lot of our communication has become much more transactional, especially with the virtual communication that we do?

257

How can we increase that connection, which is lovely when you experience it, in a world where we're on Zooms,

258

Teams, Meets, and it's all scheduled by the half hour?

259

I actually have some good news on that front,

260

which is there's some brand new research by Eli Finkel and his colleagues on virtual dates versus in -person dates.

261

And let me just tell you, Matt, I don't know anybody who would prefer to go on a Zoom date to a date in a restaurant.

262

But if you actually look at the data comparing them, although the in -person date tends to last twice as long,

263

they are equally enjoyable and equally likely to lead to a second date.

264

And I think this is because people have low expectations for virtual interaction.

265

And when you vibe with somebody that you just met over Zoom, you come away thinking, wow, that went better than I thought it would.

266

And you're just as eager to meet them.

267

You can still gauge at a basic level whether you find them attractive and interesting.

268

And so I don't think we should write off virtual interaction altogether.

269

The evidence on Zoom fatigue suggests that we don't actually burn out having back -to -back Zooms.

270

We get bored out.

271

It's originally a French term, le bore out.

272

And it's different from burnout because burnout is basically being drained by being overstimulated and stressed beyond your capacity.

273

Whereas bore out comes from being understimulated and being at below challenge level.

274

And that is unfortunately the effect that too much virtual interaction can have on us.

275

So I think we need to set a limit on that.

276

A 30 -minute

277

Zoom date or meeting could go fine, but let's not hang out for three hours virtually.

278

Beyond recalibrating our expectations for virtual, are there things we can do to enhance vibing?

279

I think it depends what kind of wavelength you want to vibe on.

280

So I've actually found that there are three different kinds of wavelengths that we can connect on.

281

And I think about them as allies, pals, and companions.

282

So if you want to enlist someone as an ally,

283

you're basically trying to figure out what goals you share so you can help each other succeed.

284

You want to be on a mission together.

285

If you're looking to connect with somebody as a pal, a pal is somebody who you just enjoy interacting with.

286

And so you're probably defaulting to what would be fun.

287

Do we have favorite hobbies in common, shared interests?

288

Do we like the same books, movies, or music?

289

And then I think companionship is often the most intimate form of connection, but it's not always the strongest.

290

A companion is somebody where there's real mutual affection and care.

291

And there you probably are more interested in finding out what are their biggest struggles right now emotionally?

292

How can you support them?

293

you might also want to confide in them and open up a little bit.

294

And so I actually think, Matt, this is the first step.

295

If you want to improve your vibe with people that you're just meeting or you're trying to strengthen your connection with,

296

I think you want to start by asking, am I trying to build a connection as allies, pals, or companions?

297

I really appreciate that distinction of, in what way are you trying to connect?

298

I often conflate these in my own life, and then I get disappointed.

299

And it's helpful for me to think about, these are the people with whom I really just want to be pals.

300

And these are people who, for me, are allies.

301

I appreciate that.

302

Let's take allies just as an example, if you don't mind.

303

What might be a few things I could do to help myself form some of those relationships?

304

Allies are people who share your goals.

305

Pals are people who share your interests.

306

And companions are people who share your core values.

307

And if you're trying to enlist more allies in your life, you're basically looking for good collaborators.

308

And I think that usually starts with asking people, what's the biggest challenge you're running into right now?

309

Or what's a problem you would love somebody to help you to solve?

310

And when people start to talk about the roadblocks they're running into, the obstacles they're encountering, you can immediately think of, okay, what do I know?

311

Or who do I know that might be helpful there?

312

That's, I think, the asking approach.

313

If you want to start with offering instead, open up about one a year, biggest challenges to achieving your goals.

314

And then say, hey, here's where I am right now.

315

I'm stuck.

316

Or here's what I'm trying to accomplish.

317

I would love some help.

318

Is this something that's exciting for you too?

319

If so, maybe there's a way that we can collaborate or partner.

320

But I want to put a giant disclaimer on this.

321

Do not propose collaboration on the first date.

322

Way too soon.

323

The worst cold emails I get, Matt, are from people who say,

324

hey, I just wanted to reach out and see if we could collaborate on a project.

325

I'm like, I don't even know you.

326

I just met you.

327

Why don't instead you offer me an idea, a bit of advice, maybe even a piece of feedback or a suggestion.

328

And let me get a taste of who you are and what you do.

329

And then we can figure out whether it would make sense for us to collaborate on anything.

330

I appreciate you delineating the ways in which we can look to form allies

331

and specifying the differences among the different types of relationships.

332

One of the things I really liked that you said was in these situations when you're trying to connect to Vibe,

333

you can ask or you can offer.

334

And it's probably a balance of the two that can be most helpful.

335

But as you go into these situations, think to yourself, what can I ask?

336

What can I offer?

337

I think can be really helpful.

338

Let's take a quick break for a word from our sponsor, strawberry .me.

339

The real value of coaching is what it helps you see and what it helps you do differently.

340

I have been coached and I have coached others.

341

And for me, the value is clarity.

342

Seeing what you're doing well, where you're getting in your own way and what you can do differently.

343

And if you're watching this, I'm guessing you're someone who wants to keep improving.

344

That might mean communicating with more confidence, becoming a stronger leader or getting clearer about your next career move.

345

Strawberry .me is like therapy for your career.

346

They match you with a coach who fits your goals and gives you practical, personalized guidance you can actually use.

350

This has been a fantastic conversation, Adam.

351

Before we end, as you well know, I like to ask three questions.

352

One, I make up just for you, and two, I've been asking everybody as long as the show has been going.

353

Are you okay with that? Of course.

354

So this was not my original question, but now I have to ask it.

355

On a scale of one to 10, how have I done in this interview?

356

And what advice would you have for me to improve?

357

Well, I have to use a zero to 10 because the zero is just an extreme fail, and also it allows for a midpoint of five.

358

So I'm going to modify your scale.

359

That's my first piece of advice.

360

Zero to 10.

361

We use the diving scorecard.

362

Okay.

363

Secondly, I'm going to give you a 9 .25.

364

And let's see, you asked how you can improve.

365

I think, here's what I would say.

366

You are remarkably prepared.

367

You do your homework in advance on your guests and their ideas.

368

And that's both validating and productive.

369

You are such a skilled communicator.

370

I'd seen this in your videos for years but it's different to experience it directly.

371

Thank you.

372

You actually demonstrate inverse charisma.

373

I feel like you've brought out a better version of me than I would have brought to an interview with somebody else.

374

And I think that's a testament to the quality of questions you ask, but also the way you respond.

375

And very often, I would say almost every response you gave after my comments...

376

I had another thought that was sparked by you reflecting back your experience

377

or you making an observation about something I'd said that I didn't even realize was interesting.

378

Like the stakes comment, I think, was an example of that.

379

It was just kind of a throwaway observation.

380

Yeah, it was high stakes, but it was kind of not high stakes.

381

And then you commented on that.

382

I realized, oh, yeah, we want immediate stakes and long -term irrelevance.

383

Yeah, that's a principle of good exposure therapy.

384

Okay.

385

Didn't know that.

386

But you just taught me that I had something to say about that.

387

Thank you for that.

388

I think that you're underusing those strengths.

389

I think that your questions are so meaty that my impulse is to give you a full answer.

390

Especially because I know that in our recording, you're going to cut down to the greatest hits.

391

And so I want to give you more material to work with.

392

The risk of that is it reduces our burstiness.

393

It reduces the rapid fire back and forth.

394

And I don't get as much back from you that then I can riff on.

395

And the coach answer, I think, was a great example of that.

396

I gave you three points.

397

You could have responded to each one.

398

And so I think

399

if you gave your guests a target of maybe one to two minutes per answer as opposed to three to five,

400

or you said, Hey, I've got some Meteor questions.

401

And then I have some that are more 30 to 60 second style

402

that I would love to react to and then have a novel conversation around.

403

I think that would be helpful

404

because I feel torn between the competing goals of doing justice

405

to the quality of the question with a quality answer and giving you more space to react.

406

And I think I erred on the former side and you could do more of the latter.

407

What do you think?

408

I actually really appreciate that advice because

409

when I think about the shows I like and have listened to yours and see what you do,

410

I like the term burstiness because I know exactly what you're talking about.

411

I like that in my interpersonal conversations a lot and I think I can bring that here.

412

So I appreciate that.

413

And I also, it's very hard for me to accept compliments.

414

So I will simply say thank you for the compliments.

415

All right, question number two, and I'll be very interested in this answer.

416

Who is a communicator you admire and why?

417

A lot of the communicators I admire most are people who are great at explaining complex ideas in ways

418

that make them memorable, but don't flatten a 3D concept into two dimensions.

419

and I think that

420

Dan Coyle, Kate Murphy, Nedra Glover -Tawwab are all remarkably good at that.

421

The ability to make complex information accessible is a true talent and everybody you mentioned is good at that.

422

And I'm not blowing smoke here.

423

Several of our guests have named you as their communicator that they admire.

424

So know that people are really taking value from what you do as well.

425

Well, that's an honor, but flattery will get them nowhere.

426

Okay.

427

I won't tell you who they were then.

428

Final question.

429

What are the first three ingredients that go into a successful communication recipe?

430

It depends on the type of communication.

431

Are we talking about writing, speaking, conversing?

432

Let's talk about what you wrote about recently, connecting, interpersonal.

433

If you're trying to communicate in ways that help you connect, number one,

434

I don't think there's any way to get around showing a genuine interest in getting to know the other person table stakes.

435

Being as curious about the other person as you are excited to share about yourself.

436

I think that's key.

437

And that is the antidote to what sociologists call conversational narcissism. So that's number one.

438

I think number two is keeping your turns short.

439

One of the markers of a great vibe in a conversation is more rapid turn -taking.

440

Neuroscientists have shown this, that if people are going back and forth every 30 or 60 seconds,

441

they're much more likely to both be excited about the conversation than if they're alternating eight -minute monologues.

442

And so be brief.

443

And that invites the other person to be brief, at least initially.

444

And then the third step, if you want to vibe, you have shown an interest in the other person, you've gotten that bursty back and forth.

445

I think the last thing to do is to take note of a few things you want to remember from the conversation.

446

These have been called pebbles, or it's the act of pebbling.

447

You follow up a week or a month or a year later, and you say, hey, I was thinking about this comment you made,

448

or I watched a show or read an article that reminded me of you.

449

That is a memory flex.

450

And that is a way of signaling, hey, I cared enough not just to listen to you in the moment, but to actually notice over time,

451

there was something that I engaged with that I think you would like to.

452

And that's a great way to both strengthen and solidify a connection.

453

I love that term memory flex.

454

I like it.

455

I've described what you said a lot and I've never used that term, but I will now.

456

So it's about demonstrating interest, burstiness, and pebbling.

457

If you can do those three things, you've got a good communication.

458

I love how well you synthesize.

459

That's what I should have said.

460

Yes.

461

I think the three ingredients of a great vibe are interest in the other person, burstiness in the back and forth rapidly,

462

and then sending little pebbles afterward to say, hey, I thought of you and I noticed what you care about and I want to stay connected.

463

Excellent.

464

Thank you so much for the wide range of advice and guidance you've given.

465

This has been a fantastic conversation.

466

I appreciate your time and best of luck with your new book.

467

Thank you.

468

It's been a pleasure to be here, Matt.

469

This was an absolute joy.

470

Thank you for joining us for another episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, the podcast.

471

I really enjoyed learning from Adam Grant today.

472

One of the biggest takeaways I had was how we actually have different types of connection we go after, be it allies, pals, or companions.

473

This really changed the way I look at the relationships I have and am seeking to have.

474

To learn more about creative thinking and communication, listen to episode 80 from Adam's colleague, Jonah Berger.

475

This episode was produced by Katherine Reid, Ryan Campos, Alex McCarthy, and me, Matt Abrahams.

Our music is from Floyd Wonder.

/z/ — ㅈ이 아니라 성대를 울리는 /s/: afterwards /ˈæf.tɚ.wɚdz/, anxiety /æŋˈzaɪ.əti/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, physically /ˈfɪz.ɪ.kli/, observation /ˌɑbzɚˈveɪʃn̩/

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법

먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
0.75배속으로 한 문장씩 섀도잉을 시작하고, 익숙해지면 보통 속도로 돌아갑니다.
자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, vibe, feedback, connect 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
