ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
There's a lot out there about the important moments that matter. Think public speaking, interviews, negotiations, pitches - and we have loads of lessons on these topics.
But what's different about Explearning is that we also focus on the in-between: the everyday moments that make up the majority of our lives. We're talking about the social skills and know-how you need to thrive in your relationships, communities, and in your own headspace.
Whether it's making small talk, telling stories, making friends, fostering positive self-talk, managing conflict or communicating across cultures, Explearning has you covered. 💪
