How to Stay Hopeful (When It Feels Impossible)
Manage episode 517457736 series 2932451
The world feels especially heavy these days, and it’s easy to feel cynical. So today, Maya is revisiting her conversation with psychologist Jamil Zaki, who offers an alternative to cynicism: a mindset he calls “hopeful skepticism.” Jamil explains why hopeful people are more resilient, more successful in accomplishing goals, and more willing to tackle societal problems head on.
For even more from Jamil, check out our other episode with him: “How to Build Empathy and Avoid Burnout.”
