Do We Need Friction to Feel Joy? | Ep 42

Description
Do we need friction to feel joy?
This is an exploration today.. not a fully formed thought, but something that has been on my mind as I come out of the fog of my own tough season.
Today we'll explore how the contrast between hard seasons and moments of ease create big moments of joy. Part personal reflection and a bit of neuroscience thrown in for good measure, we'll process why struggle can reset our sense of joy, how dopamine and contrast actually work in the brain, and how to reframe life’s rough patches as part of the rhythm instead of proof that we're off track.
