I mean, I wouldn't say types of conversations.
There is evidence that when you share more in conversation that people tend to feel better afterwards, which is kind of interesting.
I always operate personally as an open book.
Like you could ask me anything on this podcast and I would answer it because it's just comfortable for me.
But overall, I mean, I think that like just whatever feels meaningful, whatever feels right.
Interaction partners definitely matter a lot.
Like, of course, you have the person who you like never get along with and you always get an argument with you when you're with them.
That is not a person who is going to like nurture your brain and provide these benefits.

Yeah, it's a really, really fascinating topic.
It's kind of a like mysterious thing.
