Episode 3338:

Helene Massicotte explores the difference between dreams and fantasies, emphasizing that while fantasies offer temporary escapes, dreams represent attainable goals that align with our true selves. She urges us to focus on dreams, which bring fulfillment and growth, rather than chasing empty illusions that advertisers often disguise as aspirations.

Quotes to ponder:

"Fantasies are about shortcuts to nowhere. Dreams are just as much about the journey as they are about the destination."

"You can't live your fantasies but you can, and should, live your dreams."

"Our dreams are more real than any fantasy they can peddle."
