TED Talks Daily About this episode
<p>Each Sunday, TED shares an episode of another podcast we think you'll love, handpicked for you… by us. Whether it’s grades and test scores, cushy jobs or big salaries, our ideas of “success” tend to be incredibly narrow and often start incredibly early. Julie Lythcott-Haims is a New York Times bestselling author and former Dean of Freshmen at Stanford, and she is dedicated to helping people reconsider what really makes a happy, “successful” adult. In this episode of How to Be a Better Human, another podcast from the TED Audio Collective, Julie shares wisdom for parents and anyone who has been parented on why it’s crucial to question societal expectations, how to find your own path and why empathy towards yourself and others are the true key to loving who you’ll grow up to be. </p><p>Get more How to Be a Better Human wherever you get your podcasts.</p><p>For the full text transcript, visit go.ted.com/BHTranscripts</p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
