Michael Easter dives into the human drive for more—exploring how our minds are wired to crave constant consumption, whether it’s stuff, social media, or comfort. He explains how the "scarcity mindset" pushes us to overconsume and sacrifice well-being in pursuit of temporary satisfaction. In this conversation, Michael shares practical methods to rewire our instincts, resist the pull of convenience, and adopt habits that enrich rather than deplete.

This episode challenges listeners to reconsider modern habits and take small steps toward embracing discomfort for lasting fulfillment.
