The Let’s Talk 2e Adult Conference hosted by Julie Skolnick was an online event with presentations by 16+ experts “sharing powerful strategies on everything from dating to self-advocacy.”
In this short clip from the full presentation (about 1 hour) Julie Skolnick introduces psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman for his talk "The New Hierarchy of Needs and 2e."
From the Conference summary:
Over 70 years ago, Abraham Maslow put forward an integrated theory of human motivation that still captures the public imagination.
In this talk, I will present a revised hierarchy of needs that is supported by recent research, and incorporates Maslow’s writings on the importance of self-transcendence, which preoccupied him the last few years of his life.
I will tie my revised hierarchy of needs to the basic needs that are important for 2e adults to gain agency and momentum toward living a more self-actualized life.
