Episode notes

This chapter explores the increasing prevalence of multi-generational households in the United States, revealing that these households are not exclusively low-income and actually have a lower poverty rate than the national average. The chapter highlights how this trend challenges the traditional nuclear family structure and signifies a significant societal shift.

This episode is part one of my conversation with Dr. Mauro Guillén, a Spanish-American sociologist, political economist, and management educator. I know him because he is the former dean of the Cambridge Business School. He's also a fellow at Queens College, so we share that in common too. He has built a series of research helping us look at those great trends, how they'll collide, and how they'll reshape the future of everything so that we can zoom out to get that perspective in order to zoom in and make tradeoffs that allow us to design a life that really matters.
