Dr. Nicholas Epley is one of the world’s leading experts on human behavior and connection. As a professor at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and author of A Little More Social, his research explores why people misunderstand each other, avoid connection, and underestimate the power of simple human interaction.
In this episode, Dr. Epley breaks down the science behind loneliness, conversation, gratitude, relationships, and the growing impact of isolation in the digital age. He shares why people are often overly pessimistic about social interactions, how small moments of connection shape our happiness, and what we lose when convenience replaces human contact.
If you’ve ever felt disconnected, overlooked, or uncertain about reaching out to others, this conversation offers a powerful reminder that even the smallest moments of human connection can change the course of someone’s day, including your own.
