Skipping the Small Talk; How to Start Meaningful Conversations with Creator of Big Talk - Kalina Silverman
Jan 27, 2023
Claire Calfo

Today we welcome Kalina Silverman to the pod. Kalina is the creator of Big Talk, and her mission is to skip the small talk and start having more meaningful, genuine conversations. These conversations can be with yourself, people close to you or complete strangers. The point of big talk is to reconnect with yourself and others using universal questions everyone can relate to. You don’t need to have an education or specific skillset to answer a question such as: “What are you curious about lately?”

We’ll talk with Kalina about the origin of her business, which started out as an experimental YouTube video. That went viral. Got a lot of attention. And ultimately led to her giving a TEDx Talk on “How to Skip the Small Talk and Connect with Anyone.” We learn about the workshops Kalina leads for entrepreneurs, schools, corporate offices, and how ultimately she’d love to tackle the epidemic of loneliness.
