Personal Development and Momentum Coach, Matt Suess, joins Elizabeth and Sheila to discuss how soon and how much personal information should be shared with new acquaintances - romantic, platonic, and professional. In this age of social media and googling, it's challenging to assume the same "air of mystery" as we may have been allowed in the past. Failing to reveal one's true self could be perceived as inauthentic, but sharing too much - and too soon - might also stifle a relationship that might need a little space and time to flourish.
