Episode Synopsis

Have you ever played the Dinner Party Game? It's a game where you create a guest list and invite anyone to dinner, and they must come. For most of us, that's just a fun idea.  However, by the time he'd reached his late twenties, Jon Levy was struggling. His start-up had failed, and he was grappling with the financial crash of 2008. Jon knew he wanted to make a difference in the world but didn't know how. So, he hosted a dinner party and invited 12 strangers to cook for him.    From those humble beginnings, the "Influencers Dinner" was born – a network now comprising thousands of people, including Nobel laureates, Olympic champions, and award-winning musicians.   Jon Levy's first book, The 2 AM Principle: Discover the Science of Adventure, was released in 2016. However, in 2018, Jon Levy did a TED presentation titled: What makes us influential?  That presentation birthed behavioral scientist Jon Levy onto the world stage. His Second book, "You're Invited:" The Art and Science of Connection, Trust, and Belonging, has become a New York Times & WSJ Bestseller.    Today, we all live in a post-pandemic world where most people work from home at least part of the time. Yet, as we have more time to be with who we love, we're also dealing with a global epidemic of loneliness. So, what can we do to bring Connection, Trust, and Belonging back?    Website https://www.jonlevy.com   Social Media https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonlevytlb https://www.instagram.com/jonlevytlb/?hl=en https://twitter.com/JonLevyTLB Part 1.
