In How to Fall in Love with Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty, author Elizabeth Weingarten explores how our discomfort with ambiguity and our obsession with quick answers—driven by a psychological phenomenon called the "need for closure"—can lead to poor decision-making, burnout, and personal disconnection. The book delves into how modern technology and social media amplify anxiety by minimizing our natural engagement with uncertainty and complexity.
Weingarten challenges the achievement-oriented definition of self-worth, showing how societal pressures often suppress our authentic values and divide us from our true selves. Through personal stories, research, and practical insights, she offers a compelling case for embracing uncertainty through curiosity, community building, and rituals that create meaning and foster emotional resilience.
This episode is for anyone navigating career transitions, identity shifts, or global unpredictability—and looking for a more grounded, meaningful way to move forward.
