单集简介 ...

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. 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.

  • Ted audio collective hi, everyone.

  • Chris here.

  • This week we have a repost of an old episode from our show, but it is one that I think has only become more relevant.

  • It's with Julie Lithgott Haims, and it's about how to be an adult and how to raise one.

  • So for me personally, it's become a lot more relevant to think about how to raise an adult, because I am a dad now, but also thinking about those same things for yourself.

  • What does it mean to be an adult?

  • What does it mean to be a member of society?

  • What does it mean to be a grown up?

  • These are things that I am figuring out in myself for myself, as well as figuring out for my kid.

  • And I think that may be something that you relate to, too.

  • So there's a lot there, and we think that you will enjoy hearing this episode again.

  • I hope that you will.

  • And without further ado, here is how to be an adult and how to raise one with Julie Lithgott Haims.

  • We'll be back with more new episodes of how to be a better Human next week.

  • You're listening to how to be a better human.

  • I'm your host, Chris Duffy.

  • Sometimes with friends, I play this game where we try and pinpoint what our internal age is.

  • I don't mean our actual biological age, but rather how old we feel on the inside.

  • I have some friends who are definitely extremely elderly.

  • They're ones who love an early bedtime and they love an early bird special.
