How To Know a Person with David Brooks

As society grapples with an alarming surge in loneliness, disconnection, and isolation, best-selling author and renowned columnist David Brooks has dedicated the last four years to studying how to build better connections. In this thought-provoking interview, Brooks draws from his personal experiences and his latest book, ‘How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen,’ to discuss how more meaningful communication has the potential to repair the world at large. From listening openly to asking compassionate questions, Brooks shares seemingly small yet transformative everyday actions that help us to ‘see’ others. This in turn can help us to better understand ourselves. Brooks explores the art of having a good conversation, the value of deep friendship, and the societal importance of fostering trust, providing a roadmap for improving our social interactions and, ultimately, our democracy. This interview is a must-listen for anyone interested in sharpening their social skills, establishing lasting relationships, and fostering a more connected and empathetic world.
