-
- Self-Improvement
We all want to feel more joyful, more fulfilled and yet fewer of us are classifying ourselves as "happy" these days than ever before. In this episode, we discuss the dopamine-driven feedback loop and how quick thrills (e.g., social media, TV, shopping) leave the heart feeling empty and the mind in constant search of more. We also discuss a so(u)lution... and it's probably not what you think.
