Beyond The Goals
Elizabeth Svoboda On What Makes A Hero, Practicing Compassion, & Being Your Own Safe Space

Beyond The Goals

Overnight, the world has become a place of chaos and uncertainty. We are all struggling in one way or another. Some of us have lost loved ones, opportunities, and even our home countries while a lot of us are reeling with anxiety and fear. During such tumultuous periods, It is important that we take care of ourselves and be a support system for others as well which is what we discuss in this episode. To be a part of someone's pain and absorb some of its impact is not an easy thing to do, it requires a lot of compassion and empathy but both those elements seem to be in short supply considering the way we have all been behaving. As much as we believe (and hope) that we are all naturally compassionate beings, I think for it to seep into our interactions, we have to nurture that instinct and learn to treat our own selves with kindness and generosity before we can learn to be a safe space for others. I discuss all that and more with Elizabeth Svoboda in this episode. We discuss- How compassion differs from empathy Why it's such an essential part of our emotional toolkit How kindness and generosity impact our brain health How to cultivate self-compassion How to create a place of safety and love within ourselves How we can show compassion to others without letting go our own peace or sense of safety Talking about it and teaching others to be compassionate Elizabeth Svoboda is the author of What Makes A Hero: The Surprising Science of Selflessness. She is also a science journalist and she has written for publications like the New York Times, Psychology Today, the Washington Post, and Scholastic Choices, and she has even received the Evert Clark/ Seth Payne Award for Young Science Journalists. Her stories have covered a myriad of topics, from the biology of resilience to the psychology of thoroughly modern breakups. Her second book, The Life Heroic: How to Unleash Your Most Amazing Self is meant especially for young heroes-in-training who want to transform their communities.

Kathryn interviews award-winning science writer Elizabeth Svoboda, author of “What Makes a Hero? The Surprising Science of Selflessness”. Are those who take it upon themselves to tackle a mad gunman, or stare down a bully by acting selflessly, different from the rest of us? Svoboda travelled the country consulting with top biologists and neuroscientists, to find the answers to “what makes a hero?” She has written for The New York Times, Psychology Today, Popular Science and Wired. Kathryn also interviews educator and mother Liza Long, author of “The Price of Silence: A Mom's Perspective on Mental Illness”. Long is the mother of a child who has bipolar disorder. When she heard about the Newtown shooting, her first thought was, “What if my son does that someday?” In “The Price of Silence” Long takes a devastating look at how we address mental illness through a system of education, mental healthcare, and juvenile detention that leads far too often to prison.

Audiences flock to see them.  What’s the appeal?  When we hear about real life heroes like Sully Sullenberger, or Wesley Autrey, who who jumped onto NY subway tracks to save man from an oncoming train, we are captivated.Perhaps our fascination is because we can’t ever imagine ourselves exercising such a degree of selflessness.  We might fantasize about being hero, but don't think we have the right stuff.Today science, genetics, and social psychology tells us we all, under the right circumstances and with the right experience, have what it takes. Elizabeth Svoboda, in What Makes a Hero?: The Surprising Science of Selflessness, examines how biology, upbringing and external influences all converge to produce altruistic and heroic behavior.My conversation with Elizabeth Svoboda:
