Ep 71: Big Personalities, Big Problems?

Can People Really Change? Exploring Personality Shifts, Ignorance, and Informed Perspectives

Link to the episode ??

In this episode of Let's Be Frank, Herman and Ali dive deep into the topic of personality and whether people can truly change over time. Drawing insights from personal experiences and recent discussions around Jordan Peterson's Big Five personality traits test, we explore the complexities of neuroticism, volatility, and our own shifts in perspective over the years.

We then pivot to the tricky balance of believing in the good in people versus the realism of life’s harsher realities. Inspired by thought-provoking examples like the Menendez Brothers and UFC fighter Jon Jones, we examine whether people are inherently good and simply make mistakes—or if there's something deeper at play.

As we look at current events, we can't ignore the influence of international politics, from the polarised U.S. election to the UK's latest budget announcement. How does global leadership impact not just our lives but the entire world? Join us as we discuss what it means to stay informed versus blissfully ignorant and weigh the pros and cons of each approach.
