Really enjoyed speaking with Big Think about The Secret Life of Secrets! They put together this fantastic video covering *some* of how our secrets affect us, the secrets people commonly keep, and how to cope (a great teaser for the book if you haven't checked it out yet!🤫)

Really important insights from this new paper! 1. Dominance isn't the only way to reach higher status Instead status can be obtained by gaining others' admiration and respect. 2. You don't need to think of your status as obtained at the cost of others' - we can both rise together
