/

Do you have enough? Are you happy? These questions are difficult to answer both in everyday life and across cultures. In this episode, Joseph Shaules and Ishita Ray dive into the psychology of scarcity and flourishing. We learn how feelings of scarcity affects cognitive function, and shape cultural communities. We look at research into life satisfaction in different countries, and hear stories about navigating between worlds of scarcity and abundance from: Mahel Rolando Caballero Ramirez; Torhild Liane Harr Skårnes; Sanne Bosme and husband Armen; and Emre Seven.
