The complex relationship between pleasure, addiction, and self-control.

We discuss how concepts like ego, dopamine, and 'deals with the devil' play into our everyday decisions, from choosing to eat a donut to deeper issues of addiction and self-discipline. The conversation explores the importance of finding balance, defining one's fair share, and the dangers of letting desires rule our lives.

Full podcast can be found on the µDOSE site. Join us for an insightful discussion on navigating the fine line between indulgence and restraint.
