Relationships and Oxytocin: It's About the Little Things

Produced by Ruth Park; created May, 2014
This video was created, inspired by Simon Sinek's video: Why Leaders Eat Last ( • Simon Sinek: Why Leade... ). I found the way Simon connects our attitudes and perceptions of the world with chemical hormones to be very effective. This video focuses on one hormone in particular: oxytocin. While Simon talks about how hormones affect leadership, I talk about the role of oxytocin, a single hormone, in relationships.
This video was produced for a class called Production of Educational Videos, but also because I believe it is crucial for people (particularly middle school and beyond-when puberty kicks in) to understand the importance and the impact of love and generosity.
