The Model Health Show
Description
Have you ever hesitated to share what you were really thinking? Or have you ever regretted saying something vulnerable? Both experiences are common, and today you’re going to learn how to make a more informed decision on when to open up.
On this episode of The Model Health Show, we’re joined by Harvard Business School professor Dr. Leslie John to discuss the research behind being vulnerable. Dr. John’s new book, Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing, is a groundbreaking guide to better communication. In this interview, you’re going to learn how oversharing can actually help you build stronger relationships, better health, and more success.
We’re going to discuss the benefits of sharing your thoughts with others, the health benefits of writing down your thoughts, and how to evaluate the risks of opening up. You’ll learn why revealing your inner world is a skill, and what you can achieve by being more vulnerable. This conversation will help you cultivate more intentional and fulfilling conversations that can lead to better, healthier relationships and more inner peace. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Dr. Leslie John!
