Everyone know that you should say “I love you” to your mate because it fosters intimacy and connection. It turns out there are 3 other words you should too because couples who say these words have stronger and closer relationships. What are those 3 words? Listen and find out. http://truetowords.blogspot.com/2010/02/i-me-us-we-little-words-big-impact.html Most of us are willing to help others if we can. It feels good to help someone in need. Yet many of us have trouble asking for help when we need it. And sometimes we don’t ask in a way that makes it likely the other person will help. Here with some advice is social psychologist Heidi Grant. author of the book, Reinforcements: How to Get People to Help You (https://amzn.to/2MRA4Ep). Heidi has explored the research and when you hear what she has to say, you will become better and more effective at asking for help when you need it.  It’s hard to imagine life without email. It has become such a central part of our lives and a primary means of communications. Email is also a colossal headache that causes stress and anxiety for many people. Joining me to explain where email came from and why it’s not going away anytime soon is Esther Milne. She is Associate Professor of Media and Communications at Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia and author of the book, Email and the Everyday: Stories of Disclosure, Trust, and Digital Labor (https://amzn.to/3qCfRVO). If you use email, you will want to hear this fascinating discussion. How can your first name impact how long you live? Well, like so many things, there is study that says there is a connection. Listen to hear what it is and if you should consider changing your name so you live longer. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/07481180903411885 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
