Description

In this episode, we break down the hidden bias that keeps you stuck—and broke. You’ll learn how the Endowment Effect tricks your brain into overvaluing what you already have, from old clothes to dead-end jobs, and how to break free from it. From college majors and relationships you’ve outgrown, to why loss feels twice as painful as gain, this one’s all about letting go of what no longer serves you so you can make room for what does.
