Episode 062 – Emily Kumler Kaplan

Welcome to another episode of The HERO Show. I am your host Richard Matthews, (@AKATheAlchemist) and you are listening to Episode 062 with Emily Kumler Kaplan – We Grow and Learn from Other People’s Stories.

Emily Kumler Kaplan is an award-winning investigative journalist.

As an ABC news staffer, newspaper reporter, columnist, and magazine writer, she has gone inside the minds of murderers, world leaders, celebrities, business innovators, and everyone in between. Emily’s fascination with how our personal narratives play a major role in our experiences makes her a captivating writer and speaker.

She contributes to the The New York Times, The Boston Globe, Boston Magazine, Good Morning America, The New York Daily News, Cosmopolitan Magazine, The Daily Beast, and other media outlets. She also writes a weekly health column for Boston Magazine.

Here’s just a taste of what we talked about today:

  • Running Startups in between Journalism.
  • Realising that in the medical space, doctors know what they’re taught.
  • Women’s health is completely different from men’s health.
  • We have to know our own bodies and take care according to the irreversible damage we’ve already done.
  • Growing up different and learning to take risks.
  • The things that people want are generally the same. If one group of people don’t get that, their behavior escalates until the rest of us pay attention.
  • People across the globe are generally good but it does not get reflected in the way society looks at itself.
  • Journalism is a totally selfish job because you will be growing and learning from every single story.
  • The stories that we have are our most valuable commodity.
  • Journalism is finding ways to talk to people or gather information and find out if there is a story to tell. It’s the same thing with business; we find out if there is a market need for something and develop products to satiate that market without needing a lot of money.
  • There is always a lot more to learn.
  • The best way to show a person that you are listening to them is to ask them really good questions.
  • Misinformation is the problem across the board.
  • Giving a voice to people who don’t have one.
  • Good decisions require good, reliable information.
  • Some medical problems become cultural rather than purely medical.
  • You have to help yourself first before are able to care for someone else.
  • Some of the best ideas sprout from our down time–those moments that we feel bored.
  • People work in cycles. There is a season where we are most productive and down times where we need to cool off.
  • If you love what you do, the work-life balance becomes totally different.
