Think about the best conversation you’ve had in the last year: the one that left you feeling closer to someone. It’s likely that in that conversation, you weren’t thinking about yourself at all. Why do those moments seem rarer than they should be and what would we have to change to have more of them?
Hello, I'm your host Dr. Anthony Silard, and welcome to ReSocial—where we rediscover, reflect on and renew how we approach social relationships so we can develop Compassionate, Meaningful, Sustainable Relationships, or what we call CMSRs.
Today I’m joined by Dr. Jennifer Crocker, a renowned social psychologist, fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and recipient of the Lifetime Career Award from the International Society for Self and Identity. Jenny has spent her research career studying self-esteem and how compassionate goals impact our quality of connection with others, leading to richer CMSRs.
