The Big Talk Story
Watch the viral video that started the Big Talk movement.
Big Talk is a communication approach that facilitates meaningful connections in life—with family, friends, coworkers, strangers, and even oneself—through the process of skipping small talk to ask more open-ended and thought-provoking questions. In turn, Big Talk elicits responses that help people build relationships and share their life stories. Big Talk is a video series, a card game, an educational and business tool, a government-funded international Fulbright research project, and a powerful platform that encourages people to share their most profound thoughts, feelings, and life stories—making their voices heard.
