In this podcast episode, I sat down for an in depth conversation with Scott Barry Kaufman. Scott is a humanistic psychologist and has taught courses on intelligence, creativity, and well-being at Columbia University, NYU, the University of Pennsylvania. Scott received his M. Phil in Experimental Psychology from the University of Cambridge and later went on to receive his P.H.D. in Cognitive Psychology from Yale University.
Scott is the author of Transcend: The New Science of Self-Actualization. In the book Scott revists and reforms Maslow's hierachy of needs. Scott provides a roadmap for finding purpose and fulfillment–not by striving for money, success, or “happiness,” but by becoming the best version of ourselves, or what Maslow called self-actualization.

The discussion focuses on Scott's argument for a his Revised-integrated hierarchy of human needs and the nature of the phenomenon of transcedence.
