In episode 502 of Passion Struck, we tackle a subject that's hitting hard in our world right now: cynicism. Cynicism creeps into our thoughts, erodes our connections, and chips away at our belief in one another. To help us untangle this, we have an extraordinary guest, Dr. Jamil Zaki, a professor of psychology at Stanford University and an expert in empathy and kindness. His new book, Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness, reveals how we can overcome cynicism through hopeful skepticism.Dr. Zaki shares powerful insights from over two decades of research on how to escape the cynicism trap and boost your mental well-being. We discuss the myth of the cynical genius, how to combat polarization, and foster a more unified world.
