In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl reflects on the powerful idea that "attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity," a thought-provoking quote from Simone Weil. As he works on his new book about aligning the use of personal capital with what matters most, Carl explores attention as one of the four key forms of capital.

Through personal anecdotes, Carl highlights the deep connections that arise when we give others our full attention, a rare and generous act in today's busy world.
