Notas del episodio
In Episode 6, Evet opens with a simple observation from a friend that raises a bigger question: when did kindness become remarkable? From there, the episode moves through the psychology of hyper-individualism and its three measurable costs — loneliness, polarization, and empathy erosion — tracing how each generation is living them out differently. Gen Z, Millennials, and Gen X each get an honest and unflinching look, including Evet's own generation and her own blind spots. The episode draws on the work of psychologists Jean Twenge and W. Keith Campbell, former Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, and scholar john a. powell of the Othering and Belonging Institute, whose framework of othering and belonging gives language to what many are witnessing but struggling to name. The episode closes with five concrete entry points toward change: presence, extending the circle, seeking discomfort, accountability, and small acts of kindness — and a reflection question for the listener to sit with.
