In this episode, we sit down with Kevin Howard, author of Onward At Last, a compelling collection of essays exploring the root causes of American unhappiness and the pathway to personal and collective progress. Raised in the Bronx and having served in the US Army, Kevin navigated a successful career in business banking before realizing a critical void in his seemingly accomplished life. His book delves into how deeply ingrained values of independence, competition, and self-interest, while driving capitalism, can obstruct societal contentment and ecological balance. As our nation grapples with fear, unhappiness, and division, Kevin's insights offer a transformative perspective on our interconnectedness and the importance of embracing our collective humanity. Join us as we discuss the moral imperative of moving beyond self-centered views, acknowledging our universal oneness, and learning to rely on each other in a world teetering on the edge of self-destruction.
