Unpacking Implicit Bias: Understanding Our Hidden Beliefs
“Have you ever had a time when your reaction to a situation did not seem to make sense? That could because of something you experienced in the past that is now engrained into your subconscious.”
Ever wondered why you react a certain way to situations that seem irrational? It might be due to implicit bias—those subconscious beliefs shaped by past experiences. In this episode of 'Through a Therapist's Eyes,' Chris Gazdik and guest Matthew Hanks dive into the concept of implicit bias, exploring how these hidden biases influence our lives and relationships. They discuss the origins of implicit bias, its social and religious implications, and how trauma can amplify these subconscious tendencies.
By identifying and understanding these biases, you can take steps to minimize their negative impact on yourself and those around you. This episode doesn't just stop at theory; it offers practical advice on how to become more aware of your implicit biases and use that awareness to foster positive change in your community. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that challenges you to question, 'Why do we believe what we believe?'
