How to Make Friends and Compliment People

Connecting with people is a sure-fire way to be happier - and you
can quickly build relationships with friends and strangers alike
just by giving them a sincere compliment.


In the first show of a season about how to be more sociable - we
meet Troy Hawke, who makes a living complimenting everyone he
passes on the street, and scientist Xuan Zhao - an expert on
compliments who ditched her boyfriend for failing to say out loud
all the nice things he thought about her.


(For more on Xuan's public benefit startup Flourish Science - a
company aiming to "help people discover joy, combat burnout, and
cultivate deeper connections within supportive communities" -
