In a time of deep division and unease, overcoming our loneliness and uncertainty is a massive challenge. This week, award-winning author, educator, lawyer, scientist, and meditation teacher Anu Gupta sits down with host Paula Felps to explain how — and where — we can start. His best-selling book, Breaking Bias: Where Stereotypes and Prejudices Come From and the Science-Backed Method to Unravel Them, is a rich toolkit to help each of us understand how to cultivate the wisdom and compassion we need to transcend the bias, exclusion, and turmoil in the world around us.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The five causes of biases and how they’re playing out today.
  • How social media reinforces our biases and how to use it more intentionally.
  • How to stay calm and mindful when we’re feeling emotionally triggered.
