Curious Now #4: Other People's Standards
Apr 02, 2025•12 min
Episode description
What happens when someone’s actions don’t meet our standard? Even in innocuous situations, with complete strangers, we can find that we have a flaming hot judgment rearing up inside of us. Instead of thinking, “I bet this person has a really good reason for doing what they’ve doing,” our first reaction is often, “What an idiot!” In this week’s episode, Jenny explores how when there’s a conflict, we can get curious now instead of jumping to harsh, reactive inferences about the other person’s intelligence and character.
