Bite-size: Why We Trust Vibes More Than Logic with Jason De Gandio #120

In this episode of The Inner Entrepreneur Bite-Size, we dive into the fascinating world of vibes — what they are, how we experience them, and why they matter.

Our guest, Jason Del Gandio, a professor of communication studies, explains how vibes show up in everyday life — from the instant connection (or disconnect) we feel with someone, to the electrifying atmosphere of a live concert or sporting event.

We explore:

• The link between vibes, connection, and communication


• Why entrepreneurs often rely on “gut vibes” in business and relationships


• How vibes shape the energy of groups, crowds, and even entire cultures


• The distinction between emotion and vibe — and how they interact


• Why being present and less distracted helps us tune into vibes more deeply


• The idea of bodily emanation — that every person radiates a unique energetic presence

This conversation invites you to reflect on how often you use (or notice) the word “vibe” in your daily life, and what it truly means when you say “good vibe” or “bad vibe.”
