Ever notice how easy it is to spot what's wrong instead of what's right? In this episode, Maggie and Ryan discuss our tendency to focus on problems and complaints rather than beauty and joy. Our brains seem wired to notice the negative, making complaints and judgment our default mode. This negative focus impacts not just our personal happiness but also our relationships with others, as we bond over shared complaints rather than genuine connection. Learn why changing your perspective requires intentional daily practice and discover why this mindset shift might be the most important work you'll ever do.
