What if the thing shaping almost every decision you make is happening quietly — without you realizing it?

John breaks down a powerful idea from psychologist and Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman: there are two selves at play — the experiencing self (who lives life moment-to-moment) and the remembering self (who tells the story and makes most decisions).

When those two don’t agree, you can end up living a life that looks “right” on paper… but still feels empty inside.
