Comment “BETTER” and I’ll send you my Newsletter twice a month!

In 1995, psychologists manufactured genuine closeness between total strangers in under an hour using 36 questions, and the only thing that made it work was that both people took turns answering them. Closeness was never really about years or chemistry. It is two people taking turns being a little brave.

Before jumping in to help, try asking one simple question: do you want to be helped, hugged, or heard? People know the answer immediately, and it changes everything about how you show up for them.

Looping for understanding is simple: ask a question, repeat back what you heard in your own words, then check if you got it right. If you want someone to listen to you, you first have to prove you actually heard them.

Super communicators ask 10 to 20 times more questions than the average person, and most of them are simple. The real skill is asking questions that invite people to talk about what they actually care about, and then genuinely listening to the answer.

Most of us think we laugh because something is funny. But 80% of the time, laughter has nothing to do with humor. It's how we tell someone we want to connect with them.

Vulnerability is not oversharing or emotional dumping it is the moment you say something another person could judge and choose to be seen anyway. Real connection is created when that vulnerability is met with acceptance instead of criticism because trust grows the moment people feel safe being authentic around each other.

I see this all the time: we reach for stickers, dollars, rewards... and then feel confused when nothing really sticks.⁠
⁠
Here’s the reframe that changes everything: what shapes behavior long-term isn’t transactions - it’s connection. Feeling seen. Feeling valued. Feeling like, “My parent really knows who I’m becoming.”⁠
⁠
That kind of reward lands in a child’s nervous system. And once it lands there, it lasts. ⁠
⁠
If this made you pause, or rethink how you motivate your child, my full conversation with @charlesduhigg is now out on the Good Inside Podcast. Comment PODCAST and I’ll send you a link to the full episode! 🎧

Research shows that people with a clear sense of who they are separate from their roles and titles make better decisions and experience less anxiety, but most of us have never actually tested how clear our self concept is. Write down everything you think you are, then write down how you would describe yourself if you could not use any of those labels because that second list is usually the one that actually feels like you.

A neuroscientist discovered that the feeling of instantly clicking with someone is not a metaphor, it is two brains literally falling into alignment, a phenomenon called neural entrainment, and our brains evolved to crave it. The people who create that feeling most consistently are not more charming, they just ask more questions, match the other person's energy, and make it obvious they actually want to understand you.

One problem with AI? It messes with the signals that we've developed, over centuries, to figure out what we ought to pay attention to, and what we can safely ignore. Thanks @FindingMastery for having me on the show!

In 1997 the psychologist Arthur Aron proved you can engineer closeness. He sat two strangers down with 36 questions in three escalating sets, and 45 minutes later some felt closer to each other than to lifelong friends. One pair married. Here's the full list, plus how to actually ask them: take turns, answer everything, and never ask for more than you're willing to give. Start light, slow down as it deepens, and finish by mirroring each other. Connection was always a sequence, not a spark. More stories like this in The Science of Better (link in bio).

When limits come from frustration, kids feel like the problem. When limits come from protection, kids feel cared for - even if they don’t like the decision. And that distinction matters more than we think.⁠
⁠
In my talk Charles Duhigg on the Good Inside Podcast, we talk about how better cues, named rewards, and repair over punishment don’t just change behavior - they lower tension and build real connection at home. With our kids. With our partners. And with ourselves.⁠

This episode is for anyone who wants to communicate more clearly, and finally make change stick. Comment PODCAST and I'll send you a link to listen to the full episode!

Most people are trying to sound smart in a conversation. The people others open up to are trying to make them feel heard. Seven sentences do most of the work, and none of them are clever: "Can I tell you why I'm asking?" "I could be wrong about this." "Let me make sure I actually got that."

Great communicators don’t guess what people need they clarify it by asking whether someone wants help, empathy, or just to be heard before responding. This simple shift prevents miscommunication and instantly aligns the conversation so people feel understood instead of misunderstood or interrupted.
