The Psychology of Confident Ignorance
Update: 2025-06-25
Description
What happens when we stop thinking—but still feel sure of ourselves? In this episode, RJ Starr breaks down the psychology of confident ignorance: why we mistake familiarity for understanding, how modern distraction and mental shortcuts make us overconfident, and what it costs us when life demands real clarity. From gist-level processing to the Dunning-Kruger effect, this is a deep, urgent conversation about attention, emotional discipline, and the quiet erosion of our ability to handle complexity. If you’ve ever caught yourself reacting faster than you’re thinking—this one’s for you.
