Are we born to compete or born to cooperate? 🧬

For centuries, we’ve been told that humans are naturally selfish, driven only by survival. But modern neuroscience and evolutionary biology suggest a different story. In this episode, we dive into the 'Survival of the Kindest' and why our brains are actually hardwired for empathy.

In this episode, we explore:

🧠 The 'Selfish Gene' theory vs. Biological Altruism.

🔬 How Oxytocin and the Vagus Nerve drive human connection.

🤝 The evolutionary advantage of cooperation over competition.

🌱 Why modern society makes us feel more selfish than we actually are.

Understanding begins with why.
