S1E10 What it Takes to Have Deep and Meaningful Relationships — with Eric Barker

Have you found all this social distancing has caused you social isolation, changing the way you interact with others? Instead of going back to the way it was, you can move forward and learn how to deepen friendships, re-ignite your love life, and get closer to others, whether you’re an extrovert or introvert, socially adept or socially anxious. In this episode of The Thinking Vitamins Podcast, I speak with Eric Barker, the author of The Wall Street Journal bestseller “Barking Up the Wrong Tree,” about his new book, “Plays Well with Others,” the surprising science behind why everything you know about relationships is (mostly) wrong.

 

If you'd like to learn how to make friends as an adult, about the misconceptions around relationships and hear a tough perspective on love...then this is for you. 

 

In this episode, you'll learn:

 

- what makes a great friend and the optimal number of friends an adult should have

- the difference between loneliness and solitude and how each can affect your health

- how this book will challenge and change your thinking on love

 

Enjoy the show!
