What's the real cost of chasing the American dream? 

Today, we're exploring this question with Carlos Hidalgo, author of Un-American Dream, a book about his personal journey of chasing recognition, prestige, and riches and how it almost cost him his marriage, identity, and career. 

As we dissect the societal pressures leading us towards overwork and self-sacrifice. We're questioning our cultural attitudes towards busyness and whether it's an accurate measure of our importance or a trap we've inadvertently fallen into. 

We dive head-first into the powerful role of values and boundaries in crafting our lives. We're sharing strategies to identify what we truly treasure and how to set boundaries to bring our best to every aspect of our existence. 

Finally, Carlos discerns the influence of parenting, personal experiences, and social media on our perceptions of success. We emphasize the importance of being content with our unique definitions of success. 

Join us as we navigate the delicate balance between hustle and happiness.
