Ep. 8: Why Aren’t We Happy Yet? | Overthinking Happiness

What if happiness isn’t something you achieve… but something you allow yourself to experience?In this episode, Kami and Melissa unpack the pressure so many of us feel to “finally be happy” once we hit the next goal, make more money, lose the weight, build the business, heal the trauma, or become more confident.But what happens when you get there… and still don’t feel the way you thought you would?This conversation dives into overthinking happiness, nervous system safety, childhood experiences, expectations, emotional triggers, entrepreneurship, self-sabotage, and the exhausting cycle of always moving the finish line.From deeply personal stories to honest reflections about success, relationships, achievement, and emotional safety — this episode is a reminder that maybe happiness was never supposed to look perfect or cinematic.Sometimes happiness is slower than that.Sometimes it’s coffee in silence.A calm nervous system.A home-cooked meal.A moment where your brain finally stops scanning for the next problem.And maybe… that’s enough.Welcome back to Probably Most Definitely Overthinking This.
