We've all met one.

The person who has absolutely no idea what they're talking about...but somehow has the most to say about it. 😂

But before we start pointing fingers, there's an uncomfortable truth:

Sometimes Karen is us.

In this episode of Sunday's Seeds of Thoughts, Dr. Carmela Maxell takes a witty—but psychologically grounded—look at what happens when confidence outruns competence. From workplace know-it-alls and unsolicited experts to social media comment sections and our own occasional inability to simply say "I don't know," we're talking about why humans overestimate what they know, underestimate what they don't, and sometimes wander confidently into lanes where we have absolutely no business driving.

We'll explore overconfidence, self-awareness, intellectual humility, and why actual expertise often comes with something surprising: the ability to admit what you don't know.

Because confidence isn't competence.

A strong opinion isn't expertise.

And occasionally, the smartest sentence in the room is:

"I don't know enough about this to have an informed opinion."

Yes, we're talking about those people.

But don't get too comfortable.

We're also talking about you. And me.

A quick truth for the soul.
Real talk. Every Sunday.
