Do You Really Know Yourself? | WHAT WOULD YOU TRUST? — Season 2, Episode 01

You believe you know yourself. But what if the person you understand the least is yourself?
In the opening episode of Season 2, we explore the gap between who we believe we are and what our actions reveal about us.
Why do we explain away our mistakes? Can we distinguish an honest explanation from an excuse? And what happens when our actions contradict the values we claim to hold?
Perhaps knowing yourself isn't about achieving complete certainty. Perhaps it begins with questioning the story you tell yourself.
IN THIS EPISODE
• How we construct stories about our own character
• Why knowing what you do isn't the same as knowing why
• How self-image influences our interpretation of choices
• The difference between self-knowledge and certainty
• Whether we're willing to question our beliefs about ourselves
QUESTION FOR YOU
If you discovered that your understanding of yourself was wrong, would you change who you are — or what you believe?
