Angela and Vanessa explore why humans struggle with feelings of perpetual dissatisfaction despite living with unprecedented comfort and abundance. We dive into the evolutionary psychology behind our restless minds and why contentment feels so elusive in modern life.

• The evolutionary advantage of dissatisfaction: it drives innovation and progress
• Research showing people would rather electrocute themselves than sit alone with their thoughts for 15 minutes
• The four psychological components of dissatisfaction: boredom, negativity bias, rumination, and hedonic adaptation
• Why external achievements and possessions rarely create lasting happiness
• Finding contentment through internal peace rather than external acquisition
• The relationship between purpose, interconnection, and meaningful satisfaction
• How helping others and standing up for those who cannot stand up for themselves brings deeper fulfillment

Live your life on 10, your 10.
