Episode notes
Community Is Core To Well‑Being
- Community is a core human need that intersects with finances and overall well-being.
- Relationships supply resources, reciprocity, and emotional support that money alone cannot replace.
Self‑Sufficiency Drives Costly Isolation
- Cultural individualism makes relying on others feel shameful, which drives isolation.
- That isolation pushes people to spend money to solve problems instead of asking their community for help.

- Mapping your relationships helps reveal gaps and where to invest time and money.
