Is being human all about striving for perfection?  

In this episode of Human(ing) Well, Amber Cabral explores the concept of “good humaning,” which focuses on curiosity, learning, and embracing vulnerability rather than aiming for flawlessness.

She highlights the surprising diversity of her audience, including many men, and critiques the social media culture that often shames those who admit they don’t have all the answers. Using Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl performance as an example, she discusses how misinformation prevents genuine dialogue and understanding. Amber also encourages everyone to foster curiosity in conversations, offering practical tips for inviting others to share their perspectives and learn together. 

Tune in and reflect on why we hesitate to admit what we don’t know—it's not about striving for perfection, but about embracing curiosity, improving ourselves, and showing genuine humanity to others.
