About this listen
Why does each year feel shorter than the last? This episode unpacks the “Holiday Paradox,” exploring both the proportional theory of time—where each year becomes a smaller fraction of our lives—and the neuroscience of memory and perception.
Discover how novelty slows time by creating rich memories, why routines compress our sense of experience, and how strategies like mindfulness and embracing new activities can help us stretch time and savor life more fully.
