Are you spending six to seven work weeks every year just deciding what to eat, wear, and watch? 😳
Sorry not sorry — it's true. The average person is.
Today’s episode is here to give you that time back.
In this quick and practical episode, we’re talking about a concept from the world of behavioral economics that every overthinker needs in their back pocket: Satisficing (yep, it’s a real word).
You’ll learn:
-
What satisfying + sufficing = (hint...it's "satisficing")
-
Why it’s not the same as settling
-
How it can reduce decision fatigue and free up brainpower
-
When to use it and how to apply it to real-life decisions (like picking dinner, decorating for a holiday, or answering a text)
Whether you’re burned out from optimizing every tiny choice or just want to stop spiraling about stuff that doesn’t matter that much — this episode will help you make faster, clearer decisions with less drama.
