Show Notes

One of our listeners sent us this question about the idea of constantly wanting to get ahead in life, and how that seems to clash with another idea of being happy with what you have. Aren't these two ideas in conflict with each other?

Tell us your two cents and drop us a question (or two, or three) here:
