#19. A 7-figure Exit Doesn’t Lead to Happiness (but I’ll tell ya what does…) with Josh Boone

Aug 5, 2022
58:33

Ah yes, the question we love to ask, “What is happiness?” I’ll tell you what it’s not… getting what you want.

Armand Uno (@thenameisuno) sits down with Founder and Adventurer, Josh Boone, to talk about imposter syndrome, the pitfalls of high expectations, and romanticizing degenerate habits.

Oh, and the secret to happiness (hint: it's not working your @ss off).

Episode Quotes I Enjoyed

“It’s easy to scale money. It’s harder to scale contentment and well being.”

We hire our jobs as a distraction. (paraphrase)

There’s talk of Batman and Imposter Syndrome throughout this episode. The title was gonna be “Gotham City Imposter Syndrome” but that’s a deeeep cut. If you get that joke, HMU armand@playhardpodcast.com and let's be friends.
