Money promises security, freedom, and happiness, but for most people, it never feels like enough. Every time you hit a milestone, the finish line moves. In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I break down why your brain resets the goalposts, how hedonic adaptation keeps you chasing, and what you can do to define “funded contentment” in a way that finally feels like freedom.

This is not financial advice, it’s psychological clarity. If you’re tired of feeling restless no matter how much you earn, this episode will help you see that “enough” isn’t a number you stumble upon, it’s a number you decide.

✨ Key Takeaways

• Why happiness rises with income until the brain normalizes it, and how to stop the cycle.
• The 5-step toolkit for defining “enough” with both a floor and a ceiling.
• Why funding safety before status creates invisible confidence.
• How to measure emotional ROI alongside financial ROI every 90 days.
• Practical exercises to interrupt hedonic drift and anchor gratitude in evidence.
