190. What makes you so sure?, featuring Julia Galef

As the world heats up with opinions on everything, I find myself trying to sift through the data and voices on each side. Despite having the same exact agenda—to live a healthy life doing the things we love with the people we love—somehow divisiveness is permeating every aspect of society. We were all in it together 12 months ago, and yet today we find ourselves ready to attack anyone who might have a different perspective.

Today’s clip with Julia Galef reminds us that our worldview is a living document, meant to be revised. If we can simply allow ourselves to be curious, open to other ideas, and constantly pursuing the truth, we just might find pride in allowing our own perspective to change.
