Making choices is hard – especially when it's a big one, like whether or not to quit your job or to break up with your partner. Life-altering decisions are nerve-wracking for many, but why? Professor Steven Levitt published an interesting article, and we were particularly fascinated by choices and the happiness they may (or may not) bring. In another addition to our segment "Chill with IAS," join Amy in a solo episode discussing what to do with hard choices!
