The Unexpected Anti-Aging Trick: Talking to Strangers

Erika Kelly

Hey friend,

Forget expensive serums and sketchy juice cleanses—turns out, one of the most powerful anti-aging tools is free and everywhere: talking to strangers.

Yep, the science is in: micro-connections (like chatting with your barista or complimenting a stranger’s dog sweater) boost mood, sharpen the brain, reduce stress, and—get this—can even help you live longer. 🧠✨

In this week’s episode of Laughing My Age Off, we explore the power of weak ties, awkward elevator chats, and why small talk might be your next best wellness hack.

🎯 Plus, I give you a fun challenge to turn “hi” into high-vibe aging.
