Ep: 425: Use Touch When Talk Is Tough, Close Your Eyes in a Dressing Room, and Answers for Questioners
12 april 2023 · 29 min
We discuss why it’s helpful to touch someone during a tough conversation (if
appropriate, of course). We mention why closing your eyes in a store dressing
room can make it easier to make good buying decisions, and we take a deep dive
into listeners’ answers to two common questions from Questioners. We also raise
a listener question: “My relatives won’t restrain their dogs, who, while friendly,
are scaring my young daughter.”

Little Happier: The Old Story of Stone Soup Reminds Me that Magic Solutions Usually Don’t Exist
30 januari 2023 · 7 min
In an old story, a stone magically makes a soup out of water—but you do have to add carrots, beef, cabbage, onions, milk, salt, pepper, and potatoes. This story reminds me to be wary when someone offers a quick fix to make something desirable happen. Probably I have to do the work myself.

You can do better than a New Year’s resolution | How to Be a Better Human
3 januari 2023 · 40 min
Why do so many of us wait until a new calendar year to start setting our goals? Gretchen recently sat down with Chris Duffy, host of How to Be a Better Human, to discuss this goal-obsessed time of year. As she says, “there really is no magic to January 1st”-- and the best time to start a healthy habit is just, well, “now.” In this episode, she shares eye-opening frameworks on the different ways to make and achieve goals, gives tips on how to create habits that actually improve our lives and discusses why chasing happiness isn’t always fun – and why it doesn’t always make us feel happy. For more episodes on how to be a little less terrible, follow How to Be a Better Human from the TED Audio Collective.

Little Happier: Why Does One Person Possess a Certain Kind of Magic?
26 december 2022 · 5 min
Since childhood, I’ve been reflecting on the depiction of Beatrice d’Este, a duchess from fifteenth century Italy, in E. L. Konisgburg’s novel The Second Mrs. Giaconda. What is the mystery of character? I think about that question all the time, and reading this novel may have been one of the influences that made me want to understand this mystery.

Little Happier: Paraprosdokian is Much Funnier Than It Sounds
19 december 2022 · 4 min
Paraprosdokian is a figure of speech in which the latter half of a statement or a phrase has an unexpected ending, which makes the listener reinterpret the first part in a way that is funny or memorable. Finding new examples of paraprosdokian gives me a real burst of pleasure. “Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.”
