    Best quote from Master Conversations as an Introvert

    “

    Authentic connection happens when you're genuinely curious about the other person, not when you're trying to impress them. When you shift from 'What can I say that's clever?' to 'What would I genuinely like to know about this person?', the pressure drops dramatically.
