How to Be an Interesting Person

What if curiosity, not confidence, was the real secret to unforgettable conversations?

And what if your everyday life already contained more stories than you realize?

How to Be Interesting: Daily Habits of Curiosity and Connection That Make You Unforgettable is Sage Monroe’s practical, psychology-backed guide for anyone who has ever said, “I’m not that interesting,” and believed it. This book flips that belief on its head by showing you how magnetic people think, listen, question, and notice the world, not how they perform for it.

Inside, listeners discover how to:

• Build instant connection using curiosity-based conversation skills that make people open up

• Turn ordinary moments into memorable stories without exaggeration or drama

• Use active listening as a social advantage in friendships, relationships, and work

• Navigate conversations with ease, especially if you’re anxious, introverted, or socially rusty

• Develop daily microhabits that create naturally interesting material—no expensive hobbies required

• Reboot your confidence after isolation, burnout, or years of feeling invisible

• Show up with authentic charisma that feels real, grounded, and not performative

If you’ve ever wished you were more engaging, more confident, or more comfortable in your own skin, this book shows you how to get there without changing who you are. You don’t need a dramatic life. You just need to learn how to notice and share the interesting parts already in front of you.

Step into conversations with curiosity. Build relationships that matter. Become unforgettable not by trying harder, but by noticing more.

Your life isn’t boring. Let this book prove it.
