Ever feel like you’re on a treadmill that someone else set the speed for?

In this episode, we ask one deceptively simple question: When is enough, enough?

We go wherever the conversation leads—ambition vs fulfilment, the trap of “more,” childhood drivers that shape adult success, stillness as a power move, and why “I’ll be happy when…” keeps moving the goalposts. Expect straight talk, real-world stories, and a practical reflection exercise you can try today.

In this episode:

· The difference between progress and the endless pursuit of “more”

· How early conditioning fuels overwork and status-chasing

· Stillness, presence, and the simple joy of a coffee on the back deck

· Corporate ladders, golden handcuffs, and the identity crisis that follows

· Money, meaning, and why “enough” is an inside job

· A 60-minute phone-free experiment to reset your internal compass

Try this:
Find a quiet spot without your phone. Sit for an hour. Ask yourself: What is enough for me—right now? Notice what comes up without judging it.
