We often work hard to get the things we want—better jobs, stronger relationships, new experiences, more skills—and then, strangely, they start to feel just normal.

In this episode, I explore hedonic adaptation and why we can slowly stop appreciating the good things already in our lives.

But if we aren't careful, those great relationships and things may lose their magic.

That’s why appreciation, perspective, and the way we communicate matter so much in keeping those things alive.
