‘Revolutions never start at the top. If we dare to dream of a more loving country - kinder, more compassionate, more cooperative, more respectful, more inclusive, more egalitarian, more harmonious, less cynical - there's only one way to start turning that dream into a reality: each of us must live as if this is already that country. ‘

HUGH MACKAY

If you haven’t already heard of Hugh Mackay this is the perfect opportunity to tap into his wisdom.

In this Gatehouse Insights interview Hugh and Louise Hvala discuss the role of kindness, why we should value it, and how we can cultivate it and use it to improve the lives of not only ourselves, but others. Hugh also shares his key takeaways from the pandemic and his top three life lessons.

Hugh is a social psychologist, researcher and bestselling author of twenty-two books, including eight novels. His non-fiction writing covers social analysis, psychology, communication and ethics and was written in response to the bushfires and pandemic of 2020.

Hugh has had a sixty-year career in social research, and was also a weekly newspaper columnist for twenty-five years. He is a Fellow of the Australian Psychological Society and of the Royal Society of New South Wales, and has been awarded honorary doctorates by five Australian universities. He was appointed an Officer of the Order of Australia in 2015, and is currently an honorary professor in the Research School of Psychology at the Australian National University.
