Tasha Eurich: The Truth About Self-Awareness and How to Improve It
For all the reasons we talked about, I typically find that the question of why doesn't lead us anywhere productive, and that was in fact what we found in a lot of the research that other scientists have done.
Do you think you're self-aware? You might be surprised. In this episode of 'The One You Feed', Eric Zimmer chats with organizational psychologist Tasha Eurich about the fascinating world of self-awareness. Eurich's research reveals a startling statistic: while 95% of people believe they're self-aware, only 10% truly are. So, what's going on here? Eurich breaks down the difference between internal and external self-awareness and shares how social media often clouds our self-perception.
She also offers practical tips, like the benefits of journaling and why asking 'what' instead of 'why' can lead to more productive self-reflection. Whether you're looking to understand yourself better or help others do the same, this episode is packed with valuable insights. Tune in to learn how to see yourself more clearly and grow in ways you never thought possible.
