#20 - Money VS Self-Fulfillment, with Elio Avila Muñoz
Find all the other episodes and ask me a question here.
Episode 20 - I'm happy to chat again with my friend Elio Avila Muñoz, this time about money! In this open discussion, we're talking about:
- The apparent trade-off between "reaching the most people" and "always making more money."
- Can we ever have "enough" money? Why do we always want more, and how can we avoid falling into that trap?
- The danger of increasing your standard of living and perceived status, and how they relate to our happiness.
- Our personal relationship with money and what we'd do with a million euros if it fell from the sky.
Enjoy your listening! 😃

Hey Eric,
I've been binging all your podcasts from the start, and I found your work through Campus Coach. I really appreciate what you do, so I'm taking the time to go through all your content (and I still have plenty to catch up on between your channel and the 75 remaining podcasts ^^). You might even hit your 100th by then :). One thought I had about podcast 20 is that it kind of reflects my current "process," which I see as deconstruction. Maybe you talk about it in another podcast. I think for me, it's a good way to question our relationship with materialism, with always wanting to own more. I think when we talk about "progress," we often think "having more," but we can also imagine progress as being vertical, horizontal, construction, or deconstruction. And sometimes deconstruction is good, as you hinted at with the person who gets injured. I also think about life's diverse processes that lead to more evolution by going through these horizontal, vertical, construction, and deconstruction phases. I realize today that I haven't applied enough critical thinking to my knowledge or actions. I'm relearning this at 45; I had indeed lost it, and it shows how many popular belief markers we have in our lives. Even on simple things like stretching to avoid soreness, heavily cushioned shoes, etc... We have a bit too much maximalism in our lives, and we too quickly forget that simplicity is probably what makes life easier. :)
Anyway, I really like your content; it resonates well with what I'm looking for.
Thanks.
