Rob Lawless has spent the last 10 years on a mission to have a one-hour conversation with 10,000 strangers. He's 7,600 people in, and what he's learned along the way will shift how you think about connection, humanity and what it actually means to make genuine connections in today's digital world. 

In this episode Rob brings us along on his 10 year journey, from an un-dream job at Deloitte, to his first few conversations to where he is today. Rob reflects on his experience with authenticity and honesty. You'll walk away from this episode feeling deeply connected to a shared humanity and unafraid to strike up a conversation with a stranger.
