On Just Beings, we explore ways to change our thinking to improve our world—and our lives.
But we’re not perfectionistic. We recognize that we’ve inherited a messy world and that we’re all just beings, who are doing what we can to try to be more just.
In each conversation, we explore the common psychology that drives all harmful and unjust behaviors. We also talk about how to shift our thinking so that we can help create a more compassionate and just world and improve our personal lives and relationships in the process.
