How I did it

How to become better at small-talk

It took me

2 years

It made me

How I did it: This took me a looooong time, and just life experience in general. I have had to make a conscious effort to put myself out there with new people (scary!). Having to work in retail to bring some money in and working at a school for children with hearing impairments where I learnt to be assertive really helped move this goal along. But I feel much more confident now - very worth it. Read how I did it…
