Cut the Small Talk with Danielle Maglente

Cut the Small Talk with Danielle Maglente

In my opinion, too often, social constraints, the fear of being judged, or the fear of not being liked or accepted, can prevent us from developing conversations and connections into more meaningful ones. With this podcast, my goal is to crack the surface with you a bit to create a space where young adults can feel connected past surface-level topics, in ways that might inspire us to have more deeper conversations and connections in the real world.

We can assume that our co-workers took a certain path to their profession - they had an interest, they went to school to pursue that interest, and they inevitably landed where they are now.

But there is such nuance that we miss when we assume. We miss the stories...

Have you ever wondered if we humans existed alone on this earth? Have you ever wondered if that wave of cold you felt in the middle of a summer night was pure coincidence, or if that strange noise at night really was as random as it seemed?

If so, you’re not alone. I’ve heard my fair share of paranormal activity stories from friends and family since I was a little girl, and I’ve always been fascinated by those that take a deeper div...
