So what I mean by that is if you need to have a curious conversation with your teenagers or with your boss, you know, it's better to prepare for it, to actually be intentional about it. You know, where are you actually going to have this conversation? What kinds of questions are you going to be asking? And something that professional athletes do is this idea of mental rehearsal.

So they actually think about the routine that they're going to do on the floor if they're a gymnast, or they think about the plays that they're going to do, you know, on the field, or they think about, you know, shooting a free throw at the free throw line. And we can do the same thing.

We can do mental rehearsal with our conversations, really walking through all the different moments of a conversation that might be really challenging or hard or hostile or scary for us. And what the research has found is that mental rehearsal in this way improves our performance. It makes us better on the field, but also in the conversation that we're going to have in both settings.

So intend is really about how do we just be more mindful, more intentional, and really practice our curiosity before we need to step into the arena with it. V is value. And this is really simple. It's really about how do we see the dignity of every person we're getting curious with? It doesn't matter their politics, their identities, their experiences that they've had.

You have to see and honor their humanity and their dignity, or you will revert to an incuriosity. You'll say, oh, well, you're a part of this group. You vote in this way. You did this in the last elections. So I know everything I need to know about you. But the truth is, is you don't know everything about a person based on who they voted for or what association they're a part of.

I think what I often have found in my work and traveling all across the country and world is that people are very curious in low stakes moments, but once things get really challenging and really hard, it's much easier to turn off curiosity.
