Description
World-renowned author and negotiation facilitator Priya Parker grew up shuttling between her mother's Indian, liberal, incense-filled Buddhist-Hindu-New Age household and her father's American, meat-eating, conservative, climate-denying one. Not surprisingly, she never knew exactly where she belonged. Parker channeled that childhood discomfort into a powerful mission: to make people experience a sense of belonging. Parker's recent book author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters, focuses on what makes people in groups make meaningful connections, whether at a dinner party or a wedding or peace talks. One hint: the answer isn't the food. On this episode of Speaking Broadly, Parker reveals her methods to ensure both engagement and delight. Listen in to hear more about creating (and naming) an event with a purpose, embracing exclusion to maintain deeper relationships and so much more.

Baker Bon Vivant: Allison Robicelli: Allison Robicelli is best known for the insanely decadent desserts that she developed with her husband Matt for their Brooklyn bakery, Robicelli's. Their cupcakes like the Nutella Lasagna became viral hits and their book, Robicelli's: A Love Story with Cupcakes was on a zillion best-seller lists. In the last year, though, the couple closed their shop, moved to Baltimore, and hit the pause button. Allison shares stories of near super-human resilience: thriving after the financial crisis squelched her business, tending to Matt through repeated hospital stays, finding an outlet for anguish and joy through writing. by Speaking Broadly
