48.Temptation: Why We Want What We Can't Have

Dear listeners, and welcome back to the Unfiltered Podcast! Today, we’re diving into something I think we can all relate to—temptation. We’re talking about those moments when you feel that undeniable pull, whether it’s the sight of a decadent dessert, the urge to text someone you know probably isn’t good for you, or the thrill of an invitation you probably shouldn’t accept. We’ll explore how to know when a temptation is a true treat—something that will genuinely bring joy—or just a fleeting desire that will leave us feeling empty. Lastly, I'll share some practical exercises that can help you manage temptation when it comes to communication and even food choices. So, let’s dive in.

Enjoy the episode!
