Have you ever been sucked into the consumeristic trap of trying to buy happiness? What is happiness anyway? We chase happiness all day long, yet often fail to admit that we don't really know what we are chasing. Many of the things we desire are ambitious goals passed on to us from family, friends, and the media. Many people chase their parents or friends dreams instead of their own. How can we as a society truly find our own happiness and how much of the stuff that we buy or consume actually fills the void?

Todd and Marie share their stories of when buying happiness has failed to satisfy, and how they continue to find a happy medium between internal and external happiness. Todd explains how a guitar purchase ended a relationship, and Marie tells the story of having one of her dreams come true as a child, only to have it fall apart once her dream was realized.

Why do we always have to wait for happiness?

"I'll be happy when I am married, I will be happy when the kids are gone, I'll be happy when I make more money, I'll be happy when I pay my debt."

So few of us are happy now. Even rich, good looking, famous people are unhappy. How can this be? We seem to be chasing what we think will make us happy in the future only to mortgage our 'Happiness Now'.

In this episode Todd and Marie discuss some of the obstacles people put upon themselves, such as materialistic wants, perfect situations to occur and a variety of proverbial ducks in order, for happiness to be achieved. Most of the time, situations won’t be perfect for you to start your next big step, so you might as well start where you are. 

When Todd first started Low Fidelity, he didn’t have all the equipment, nor his wonderful co-host Marie at the time. However, he had an iPad which was more than enough to start his dream of having his own talk show.

When your life is ahead of you and you just graduated, did you know what you wanted to do next? Did you default to what others told you to for a career, or did you pursue your dream job? Have you ever even had a dream job? 

In this episode, Marie has and her special guest Dale Roy talk about dream jobs and how Dale ended up with a dream job of his own. 

Dream jobs may not be so elusive. There are steps you can take to investigate wether or not the dream job you may think you want might be a good fit for you..or not. 

Dale asks Marie if she would ever leave fitness for her fantasy dream job. Listen to Marie’s response about what would be so dreamy for her that she would leave everything behind for a year to live out her second fantasy.
