It’s funny how people from the same generation just hit it off. They reminisce about having the same graduation song, laugh at the past fashion trends… it’s easy to relate and find common ground. On the flip, when we start having conversations with people much older or younger than ourselves, it can sometimes be a struggle to get going. Often, we even begin changing the way we talk. In this 20 min episode, we discuss common mistakes that happen when talking to others of a different generation and how to avoid them. With key takeaways and a few realizations, we have a feeling this episode will spark some enjoyable conversations, new perspectives, and belly laughs. In the end, we are all just humans who want to be treated as equals – and, come to find out, our experiences really aren’t all that unique. Thanks to Laura and Molly for sharing their knowledge based on many years of teaching children.
