Scott Barry Kaufman "Transcends" Maslow's Hierarchy
What if someone told you that Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs was actually just the beginning -- a proverbial sail to a massive ship of self-actualization? And what if the way to realize your best self is to transcend your “self” altogether? On this episode of Watching America, host Dr. Alan Campbell explores these ideas more with cognitive scientist, Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman. They discuss Kaufman’s journey through Maslow’s work, how his own adolescent experiences lead him to the work he does today, and how it all falls into his new book Transcend: The New Science of Self-Actualization.

Scott Barry Kaufman on the Psychology of Transcendence
If one of the ambitious goals of philosophy is to determine the meaning of life, one of the ambitious goals of psychology is to tell us how to achieve it. An influential work in this direction was Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs — a list of human needs, often displayed suggestively in the form of a pyramid, ranging from the most basic (food and shelter) to the most refined. At the top lurks “self-actualization," the ultimate goal of achieving one’s creative capacities. Psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman has elaborated on this model, both by exploring less-well-known writings of Maslow’s, and also...
