The Enough Equation: Redefining Success, Wealth, and Happiness with Will R. Young | Ep. 264

Hey friends! I am SO excited to share this episode with you! Today, I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Will R Young—he’s a behavioral finance expert, a practicing stoic philosopher, and the author of “The Enough Equation.” 

in today's episode, we deep into the big, juicy question: What if the real secret to a meaningful life isn’t having more, but needing less? Will and I explored how chasing “more” can actually leave us feeling less present and less joyful, and how embracing “enough” can open the door to freedom, peace, and genuine happiness.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How Will blends behavioral finance with stoic wisdom (and why it’s not all about the money!)
• The wild stories that shaped his view on what really matters (spoiler: it’s not fancy cars or big houses)
• My own reflections on how experiences and relationships light me up way more than stuff ever could
• Practical tips for resisting the “more, more, more!” trap and focusing on what truly fills your cup
• Will’s favorite rituals and routines for staying grounded (and how I’m totally stealing some of them!)
• Why generosity, adventure, and a little bit of travel hacking can make life so much richer

Plus, Will shares his secrets for using points and miles to travel first class (seriously, I’m taking notes!), and we talk about how redefining success around sufficiency could change not just our lives, but our whole culture.

If you’ve ever wondered what “enough” really means for you—or just want to hear two people get super jazzed about living with intention and joy—this episode is for you!
