I felt genuine relief when, while studying narrative therapy, I learned I didn't need to know everything! Instead, being curious and listening carefully would teach me what I needed to know to make a positive contribution to any situation.


Turns out this is intellectual humility; prioritising learning over being right, nurturing a relationship rather than demonstrating intellectual superiority.

But my favourite is Kathryn Schulz. Her 2011 TED talk shows how fallibility is where the fun is :-)
