The best conversations happen on long drives with no destination. Say yes to the ride.

Talk opens up when nobody is facing anybody and there is nothing to finish. Side by side, with the road taking most of the attention, the pressure comes off and things get said that would never survive a table and steady eye contact. The ingredient is unstructured time, not the car.

Say yes to the pointless drive, the long walk, the slow errand with someone. Bring no agenda and let the silences sit where they fall. Most conversations you end up remembering began as nothing in particular.
