261 - The Small Social Risks That Spark New Connections and Deepen Your Relationships With Ben Swire
Do you struggle to share what you're really thinking or feeling due to fear that you might be judged or rejected? Or, do you worry that someone might use your personal information against you if you put yourself out there?
If you've ever struggled to take social risks, this episode is for you. I'm talking to Ben Swire, a top thought leader on human connection and authentic living,
Some of the things we discuss are:
What "safe danger" is and why it's the key to meaningful growth
How to take micro risks (like admitting you don’t know something or giving honest feedback)
The crucial difference between comfort and true safety
Using playful and creative tasks to lower defenses and build trust
How to practice vulnerability without taking reckless, all-or-nothing leaps
The specific activities that will deepen your connections in fun ways
How to create safety in groups so people feel safe enough to share their real ideas
The art of sharing things you love (like poetry or a creative project) without fearing judgment
Why even small risks feel harder when you care deeply—and how to push through the fear
Turning your hardest struggles into your greatest emotional “superpowers”
