Only recently have social scientist been able to prove that pride is a universal and hard-wired human emotion. It's a complex one with two very different sides–one that leads to power and socially destructive costs; and one that leads to making the world a better place. The world's leading expert on the emotion of Pride, Dr Jessica Tracy is my guest today. We explore not just the topic of Pride, but also of shame, confidence, success, power, dominance, identity, leadership, and authenticity from her new book on her seminal work called, "Take Pride: Why the Deadliest Sin Holds the Secret to Human Success"
