My bestie Rosie Acosta is BACK and we're diving into something we've been questioning ourselves...why are humans perpetually unhappy? In this episode, Rosie and I explore the paradox: are we always winning in one thing while losing in another? Is this just how life works? Because think about it: when you're at the beach, you're not at the mountains. When you're with your best friend, you're not with your partner. When you're crushing it in your business, you're not spending enough time with family. When you're finally spending time with family, you're wishing you were on vacation. It never stops. We are constantly tuned into what we're NOT having right now. Which creates this existential guilt of "I'm not a good enough daughter, not a good enough partner, not enough, period." The crazy truth? Our brains are literally wired this way...for survival, not happiness. We're time hoarders trying to be everywhere at once. In this episode, we explore: 🌊 Why you're always winning in one thing and losing in another 💫 The paradox of wanting everyone and everything all at once 🧠 Why our brains are wired to calculate what we're NOT getting ⏰ Time hoarding and the constant pressure to be everywhere at once 💔 How to make peace with perpetual dissatisfaction 🎯 The power of prioritization in each chapter of your life We're getting into the solution and the one core value that shifted my entire perspective on happiness.
