We live in an over-consumption culture where the modern human seems caught in an endless cycle of wanting more - whether it's shopping, social media, information, food, or experiences. But what drives this constant hunger?

In this episode:

Overconsumption isn't the problem but a symptom of something deeper. When we consume beyond what we physically need, we're attempting to fill a void - using food for emotional comfort, scrolling for connection, or shopping for a sense of worth.

The pattern extends beyond food to entertainment, information, goods, and even experiences. While being alive requires consumption, nature strives for balance. Overconsumption tilts this balance, creating disorder in both individual and collective wellbeing.

Join me in exploring how to recognize what your hunger really craves, and discover pathways to genuine satisfaction rather than temporary relief.

Listeners will gain perspective on breaking free from the cycle of overconsumption and finding authentic satisfaction beyond material accumulation.
