About This Podcast

Are you tired of seeing your family more connected to screens than to each other? Longing for real conversations that bring you closer and create lasting memories? I’m Adrienne Giffen, mom of four, stepmom, and grandmother to teens—and I created Now You’re Talking™ to help families reconnect through the lost art of meaningful conversation. On each episode, guests play the Now You’re Talking™ board game—a fun, thoughtful way to spark stories, laughter, and heart-to-hearts. You’ll hear real conversations that bridge generations, offer wisdom, and bring families closer together. Because being “alone together” isn’t the future we want. Let’s bring back genuine connection—one meaningful conversation at a time. Subscribe to Now You’re Talking™ on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen—and let the conversations begin!
