Is it possible to be "successful" and miserable at the same time?

In this episode, Dr. Roger Hall discusses the Success Paradox, exploring why high achievers often struggle with mental health after they reach their biggest goals. He explains the concept of "Arrival Fallacy"—the delusion that lasting happiness is waiting for us at the finish line.

Dr. Hall provides a practical framework called the Wheel of Life, guiding listeners through a self-audit of seven critical areas: Spiritual, Financial, Career, Social, Family, Physical, and Intellectual.

• Buzz Aldrin's Depression: A case study in "What's next?"
• The 7-Spoke Life: How to measure true, holistic success.
• Dopamine Mechanics: Why anticipation is stronger than consumption.
• Avoiding the Crash: Strategies for transitioning from one goal to the next without the emptiness.
