Episode notes

Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is one of the best-known theories in psychology.

First introduced in 1943, the theory posits that people have an innate desire to reach their maximum potential, but to achieve this goal, they must first have their basic needs met.

These needs can be both physical and psychological, but they play a major role in understanding people’s motivations.

Learn more about Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, how they came to be, and how the psychology behind it can be used to explain human behavior on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
