未來簡單式

過去簡單式

a couple years ago, an event planner called me

幾年前，有個活動策劃打電話給我

to 不定詞

because I was going to do a speaking event.

And I thought, "Well, what's the struggle?"

and I'm going to call you a researcher, I think,

but I'm afraid if I call you a researcher, no one will come,

「但我怕這樣寫，沒有人會來聽演講」

because they'll think you're boring and irrelevant."

「因為研究員都很無聊、無關緊要」

And she said, "But the thing I liked about your talk

然後她說「但我喜歡你演講的原因」

So I think what I'll do is just call you a storyteller."

And of course, the academic, insecure part of me

我內心學術、沒安全感那面就跳出來

was like, "You're going to call me a what?"

And she said, "I'm going to call you a storyteller."

我心想：「何不乾脆叫我魔法小精靈？」

I was like, "Let me think about this for a second."

And I thought, you know, I am a storyteller.

And maybe stories are just data with a soul.

Why don't you just say I'm a researcher-storyteller."

And she went, "Haha. There's no such thing."

we're talking about expanding perception --

and so I want to talk to you and tell some stories

that fundamentally expanded my perception

and really actually changed the way that I live and love

When I was a young researcher, doctoral student,

當時我還是個年輕的研究員，念博士

if you cannot measure it, it does not exist."

And I thought he was just sweet-talking me.

I was like, "Really?" and he was like, "Absolutely."

我就說：「真的嗎？」他回：「千真萬確」

that I have a bachelor's in social work, a master's in social work,

and I was getting my Ph.D. in social work,

really, one of the big sayings in social work

is, "Lean into the discomfort of the work."

And I'm like, knock discomfort upside the head

我則是那種，遇到不愉快就趕緊

And so I thought, you know what, this is the career for me,

because I am interested in some messy topics.

因為我對這些混亂的話題有興趣

But I want to be able to make them not messy.

and lay the code out for everyone to see.

Because, by the time you're a social worker for 10 years,

It's what gives purpose and meaning to our lives.

這是我們生命被賦予意義的東西

It doesn't matter whether you talk to people

who work in social justice and mental health and abuse and neglect,

不論是社會公平、心理健康、 受虐與疏忽照顧

neurobiologically that's how we're wired --

在神經生物學來說，是我們天生的

So I thought, you know what, I'm going to start with connection.

所以我想，我要以連結開始研究

where you get an evaluation from your boss,

and she tells you 37 things you do really awesome,

and one thing -- an "opportunity for growth?"

And all you can think about is that opportunity for growth, right?

你腦子只會想這那尚待改進的事

Well, apparently this is the way my work went as well,

they'll tell you their most excruciating experiences

他們會告訴你那些他們被排除在外

And when you ask people about connection,

因為當你問人們關於連結的故事
