I've been looking forward to this.

Well, you know what's so interesting is I think we all know that different people communicate differently.

There are different styles of communication.

And yet we don't often take that into account in a conversation.

We don't think about that.

We're more interested in getting our point across.

And that's important to understand because why?

Of course.

Wow.

Well, yeah.

I mean, I have a sense of that, but it's not something I ever really think about because it's really more of, you know, I communicate the way I do.

That's how I do.

And I think I'm being pretty clear about

That's why I'm saying it the way I'm saying it, and now it's up to you to hear what I say and do something with it.

But when you say, you know, only 10% of people are self-aware, what does it mean to be self-aware?

So give me an actual example using two of the types that you've identified.

and so because we speak with those different types we're missing each other even though that's not the point okay all right which brings up a lot of questions but i guess first let's go through the all of the types and what they are and what they what that means

So when I hear you describe those different types, I can hear myself in several of them, depending on what the conversation is about and who the conversation is with.

And so is the goal to change your type or to incorporate the other types or just be aware of the way you do it and how it might land with someone else?

Well, doesn't it make you wonder why the loneliness epidemic, as you put it, is more acute now?
