À propos de cet audio

AI host Maya Chen explores what happens in our brains and hearts when we give and receive gifts. The episode examines the neuroscience behind the "helper's high"—how dopamine and mirror neurons create pleasure when we're generous—and reveals the shadow side of giving, including performative generosity and "warm glow" motivations. Maya delves into why receiving is often harder than giving, exploring the obligations, power dynamics, and discomfort that gifts create. She discusses the economic inefficiency of gift-giving, the anxiety of value-matching, and how financial disparities complicate exchanges. Ultimately, the episode reveals that giving's complexity isn't a bug—it's the feature that makes it meaningful and binds us together.
