About this episode

A candid conversation about money: How much is enough? How to find real security?

 

Sebene Selassie, an author and meditation teacher. She writes the popular newsletter Ancestors to Elements and her first book is called, You Belong

 

Jeff Warren is also an author and meditation teacher. He writes the popular Substack newsletter Home Base and is the coauthor, along with me, of a book called Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics. And he is the co-host of the mind/bod adventure pod.

 

This episode is part of our monthlong Do Life Better series. 

We talk about:

  • How much is enough 
  • The illusion of security 
  • The importance of being able to talk to your friends about this stuff
  • The power of identifying your own money story, in other words, finding the point of origination for your own neuroses on the subject
