Key Takeaways Why lifestyle design can make average experiences harder to tolerate High standards or quiet snobbery: how to tell the difference A real-time gratitude practice for finding joy in the mundane How to use your preferences as a compass instead of a megaphone What to do when everyone else seems to access joy more easily than you If this one resonated, send it to another brat in your life who needs to hear it. And let me know if I'm not alone in the comments on Spotify or YouTube, or DM me on Instagram @sam.laliberte.
