  • Smart people know things; wise people know people. For Next Question guest today, David Brooks, knowing people has been a lifelong endeavor. Katie Couric and her + 1 today, Kelly Corrigan, dig deep into David’s new book, How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen, which is all about how we connect-empathy, curiosity, vulnerability-and how we can build these skills in ourselves. There’s even an empathy test you can take along with us in the episode! Incisive and wide-ranging, this conversation is one of the funniest episodes Next Question has ever presented. Join Katie, Kelly, and David in asking yourself about the role empathy and connection plays in your life, and discover with them new ways to build and use those skills to have a more “lit up” existence.

    Good morning from the beautiful SF Bay Area. I'm new to this podcast but not new to the people on it. Thanks for a really wonderful conversation, David Brooks is one of our sages and continues to grow and expand his humanity. Love to you all.

    Kelly - “Let them surface.” “Accompaniment.” Love this. So true. We don’t always have to have the solution, just sit with the person.
    When I lost my husband to an untimely death, and just overcome with deep, deep grief, my closest friends just sat with me. The just showed up. That’s it. So so important.
    Kelly I was in advertising in NYC in the 90’s and I knew your Dad and just adored him! I love your “Tell Me More” interviews and somewhere saw a picture of you and your Dad together and said “Wait! I know that man.” I love the way you talked about him and the love especially throughout your cancer diagnosis. He would be so so proud of you.

    This conversation can be real if you let it be. I choose to be empathic. I choose living life real and present and in relationship with those in my community. I pay attention to people near me and try to stay in connection with those far away. “Presence with” is everything. If I can make a difference today, I do. Focusing in on now is what I do best. Polarization can continue to fester if people keep on talking about it. But what about waking up tomorrow and doing everything in your power to create bridges? What you talk about, you give power to. Let’s shift this!

      I know it is Katie’s show, but as an empathetic listener, felt like Katie did not let Kelly be seen and heard in several talk points. Other than that, it was an excellent podcast.

    • @elizabethdaniels51

    Social skills yes, but we need a balance of understanding ourselves and helping others. The approach here is a wild oversimplification of a complex process, especially for anyone who has suffered abuse. It isn’t about baths and “self care,” it is about knowing ourselves emotionally. Thanks, Katie! You are the best. David Brooks, I have listened to many interviews with you, and I strongly disagree with your ideas around religion and bettering ourselves through the Christian view. If one is raised in an abusive environment, one will feel lonely and misunderstood, period. I think certain people who have had a level of success and privilege, and have been extraordinarily ambitious, suddenly see “service to others” as the answer when many of us have spent much of our life in service to others and yet struggle with depression for other reasons.

    Yes, empathy can be a HELL of a lot. You can only do so much to help make the people around you feel whole. You realize that at a point. All you can do is try to keep your kindness alive and active, share it when and where you can. I met Tilda Swinton once, introduced myself, she looked me in the eye, repeated my name and said it was her pleasure to meet me, she made me feel like I was the only person in the room... I was floating the rest of the night, and remember her to this day for that small thing. Kindness matters hugely.

    When faced with two kids arguing over how to divide a pie, the best solution was to have one cut the pie while the other got first pick of the resulting two pieces. In a democracy, it's not majority rules but the majority must take responsibility for protecting the freedoms of the minority. Is that possible?

    I really enjoy the thoughts of all three people. I would of like to hear Kelly Corrigan get to finish some of her thoughts. I felt she was cut off a few times. I do understand that a conversation with three can be difficult to moderate and each person has a direction they'd like to see the conversation go.

    I'd like to hear more from Corrigan, just like I wanted to hear more from Mary Trump in another if your interviews. It's uncomfortable when one guest gets WAY MORE TIME than another (which is even more ironic in a talk about being "SEEN AND HEARD").

    It wasn’t touched on that when we share something we are struggling with for example, people take that and gossip about it to other friends and family, therefore, it doesn’t feel safe to open up anymore.

    • @AvsFan32
      @AvsFan32 7 месяцев назад

      I learned someone,that I considered a good friend, had been blatantly lying to me for two years. She also had been lying about me to others. I ended the "friendship". Some of our mutual friends can't seem to understand why I no longer want her in my life. I find myself wondering if it had been done to them, would they have a different take on it?

    • @AvsFan32
      @AvsFan32 4 месяца назад +1

      @@kileensmith5134 likely your “friend” isn’t a good friend to them either. People will make a lot excuses to not have to confront and let go of someone because it’s uncomfortable or they are just not very in tune with themselves. Good for you! Think of it as a weight off your shoulders and that you are taking care of yourself in the process. Who needs that kind of stress anyways. Friendships shouldn’t feel bad.
