In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Laura Gabayan, a leader in ER medicine and wisdom research at UCLA, shares insights from her groundbreaking book "Common Wisdom." Born to Kurdish immigrants and having faced numerous life challenges herself, Dr. Gabayan embarked on a quest to understand the essence of wisdom by interviewing 60 individuals nominated as wise across North America. Through their stories and her rigorous analysis, she identified eight core elements of wisdom, including kindness, humility, and curiosity.
Brace yourself for an illuminating journey as Dr. Gabayan unravels how the pursuit of wisdom can light our paths, leading us to profound meaning, deep contentment, and an unshakable connection to our shared humanity - even amidst life's thorniest complexities.
