i think everybody should get advice from somebody that has no bias. my advice was amazing and helped solidify some wavering decisions i was having trouble making

So awesome!!! Definitely helped with a question me and my sister have been wondering

Should I go back to work or skip the rest of the day?

We talked to George about veterans, life stressors, and Harvard :)

They do a great job. Thi is a terrific tour!

You should ask your best friend how she feels about it.

I’ve known George (from recurring visits) for three years now. Our conversations are always fruitful… whether we’re just catching up or discussing “heavier” matters.

.

I aspire to be George one day! I met George during my first visit to Boston September 2022 and was determined to say hello again during my second visit to Boston June 2023. His cheery personality and helpful wisdom is a welcomed value add to this great community and speaks to what matters most in life - kind human connection. Look forward to keeping in touch with him!

30+ years of life, love, and hair

My friends and I had a great conversation with George.

That depends.....

You're the Mayor of Harvard Square!

George was super cool. Everyone should be that cool. And, smile!

Live life for yourself. Love yourself and respect yourself. Take some risk, learn from your mistakes and move on.

Hi George. I just read your article in the Boston Globe and I am an employee in Harvard Sq. Things are really going well for me as of recent. However I cannot shake a crush. So here is the story. Back last August this woman joined a Meetup group that I am also part of. We connected on FB since we had similar interests and seemed like another person I could strike up a friendship with. She came to this big summer party the Meetup host had in Somerville. When I met her in person I caught feelings. September rolls around and we go out a couple of times. After the second time, I gave her a peck on the cheek. A week later she texts me and says “you’re a really nice person but I am not looking for a romantic relationship.” It still hurts. I hope someday she comes back into my life. She really blew the roof off the arena. She’s an engineer, she’s beautiful, engaging, and sweet. I really don’t know how to get over her and i desperately want to.

One of the most meaningful conversations I have ever had. This interaction had a huge impact on me. I am forever grateful for the advice I received. And I made a new friend!! :)

Amazing :)

Here's some great coaching advice!

Wonderful! Asked about college and he covered all the bases! Safe sex, drug use, study habits and having a proper distance away from family to become my own person. Very kind and quick, thank you George!

Thank you for your advice on helping out my friend George. It was great meeting you downtown..

I asked George for advice with my brother and I’m excited to see how it works out!

A very kind man with amazing advice!! God bless!

George was our highlight of the day. Loved his advice and how he brings joy to everyone he meets.

AMAZING! He set my boyfriend straight.

Amazing. Best guy ever!

He is amazing!!! I love this guy sooooo much and he gives the best advice!!

Amazing we talked about relationship roles, traditions, and backgrounds. George gave us a good perspective on our argument of the age old question “who should pay”?

Hi George, thank you for providing advice today on how I should approach asking for compensation from Google on building a course for them. As well as overall guidance on scaling my business. Would love to reconnect and take you up on your offer of helping me with my efforts!

George is a great guy to ask about anything!!

Hi George.Nice to meet you.This is Danny from China.I just knew you from a Chinese friend.She met you in campus some days ago.Glad to know you really do some meaningful and warm things.

I am 27 and I have been a salesman in a Chinese local supermarket for 4 years.I was a student in the top Chinese college.But I dropped out from it.The direct reason is that I was addicted into the computer game during my college time so I cannot pass the exam.The further reason is I got depression 5 years ago.to some extent，the depression is also the outcome of my dropped-out.
I am single and still lived with my parent now.

We had a great time. He was very nice..

Very nice and helped a lot!

You both look terrific!

I’ve been meaning to get George’s free advice, and I had the opportunity to do so today. George was incredibly kind! He gave me both heartwarming and practical advice on the problem I’ve been grappling with :)

Take a tour of the Harvard campus. Then leave Harvard Square because the rest of it is nothing with stores. You can see stores anywhere. Going to Boston and walk to freedom trail, visit the USS Constitution, and eat at the union oyster house.

His advice was very helpful and informative, 10/10 recommendation

I can chat on a zoom with George and share some good videos through my lab.

​

Very helpful insight.

Thank you for the thoughtful and fun conversation. Shawna and I hope to see you again after we get married this September!

We were hoping to see you here today!
