Are you finding out how the people around you really think and feel?

Being able to do so will enable deeper relationships both at work and home.

In this episode I am joined by Topaz Adizis, the creator of The Skin Deep, a powerful platform of curated conversations between partners, friends, relatives and strangers.

We explore what it takes to create space for vulnerability in relationships. Topaz explains that to achieve this you need to express your intention clearly and ask questions that stimulate reactions. He also shares how to sit with the discomfort of your feelings when you're in these vulnerable moments.

This is a masterclass in connecting with the humanity between us and I do hope you enjoy it.
