Get Off the Hedonic Treadmill and Fix Your Life w/ Chris Vasquez

What if your deepest desires aren’t even your own? Chris Vasquez and I explore the four types of freedom: financial, time, location, and inner. We discuss how to escape the hedonic treadmill, mentally rehearse who you want to be, use gratitude to rewire your brain, and separate mimetic desire from authentic drive. Chris shares his advice for getting rich, investing in yourself, spotting "A players", understanding the voids that shape our values, untangling self-worth from identity, and walking the three paths to enlightenment.

Chris Vasquez is a tech investor, entrepreneur, and host of the “World Class Podcast.”
