    The Postponement Problem: Breaking the Habit of Later

    Many of us live our lives waiting for a future happiness that we believe lies just over the horizon. But this mindset creates an indefinite postponement of life, turning the vibrant present into a mere waiting room for a tomorrow that never arrives as planned. Our journey today is to explore how we can break this cycle and learn to live in the only moment we truly have: the now.

    The Drama Addiction: When Life Imitates Fiction

    We've all felt the magnetic pull of a good story, the kind filled with conflict, mystery, and turmoil that keeps us glued to the screen. But what happens when our love for fictional chaos doesn't end when the credits roll? This talk explores our "drama addiction," the unsettling idea that we unconsciously sabotage our own peace in an effort to make our lives a more compelling, if not happier, story.
