Honesty and Integrity

About this Episode

In this deeply relevant episode of Wisdom from the Aerial View, Dr. Mark Klein and co-host Enid Borden explore why honesty is fundamentally about self-respect rather than just respect for others. Drawing from a chapter in Dr. Klein's book, the conversation examines how truthfulness builds a "cocoon of integrity" that elevates self-esteem and creates the foundation for becoming a person of substance. Recorded shortly after the 24th anniversary of 9/11 and in the midst of political violence, the episode addresses how personal commitment to honesty can serve as an antidote to societal dishonesty, even when leaders fail to model truthful behavior.
