Episode 2718:

Marc Chernoff invites readers to move beyond superficial conversations and instead ask the powerful question, "What is your story?" This simple question can uncover the rich, unique experiences that shape each individual, fostering deeper, more meaningful connections. Chernoff challenges us to normalize this question in our daily interactions, encouraging a society that values who people are over what they do.

Quotes to ponder:

"It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing."

"I just want to know who you are. I want to know your uniqueness, the experiences you’ve had and the lessons you’ve learned."

"Life is a tapestry of people weaving in and out of your life. These people come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime."
