Episode 89: Big Idea Series: Hypocrisy
Posted on July 9, 2019

In this episode, we continue our exploration the intersection of some of the biggest and most powerful ideas in history and modern science using Johnathan Haidt’s The Happiness Hypothesis as our guide. This week we put the trauma-informed lens on hypocrisy. Why do people seem to act against their own beliefs and values? Does the research on hypocrisy inform our work? What about our advocacy?
Discussion Questions:
- Have you identified any implicit biases in your own life and thinking?
- How might the research on hypocrisy inform your advocacy?
- Any way to integrate this research into your thinking about trauma?
