Scott Barry Kaufman "Transcends" Maslow's Hierarchy

What if someone told you that Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs was actually just the beginning -- a proverbial sail to a massive ship of self-actualization? And what if the way to realize your best self is to transcend your “self” altogether?

On this episode of Watching America, host Dr. Alan Campbell explores these ideas more with cognitive scientist, Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman.

They discuss Kaufman’s journey through Maslow’s work, how his own adolescent experiences lead him to the work he does today, and how it all falls into his new book Transcend: The New Science of Self-Actualization.
