Stop Chasing Happiness: Why You’re Never Satisfied (and How to Fix It) | Clutterbug Podcast # 274

If you’ve ever found yourself saying, “I’ll be happy when…” — when the house is clean, when the kids are older, when you finally get that promotion or dream kitchen — you’re not alone. Maybe you’re always chasing the next goal, the next purchase, the next big thing… but somehow, happiness still feels out of reach. In this episode, I’m getting real about something I’ve been struggling with for years: destination addiction. It’s that constant feeling of needing more to finally feel content. And spoiler alert — it’s not just a mindset issue… it’s biology. It’s what psychologists call the hedonic treadmill, and friends, I’ve been sprinting on it for most of my adult life. So today, I’m hitting pause. I’m sharing the science behind why we adapt so quickly to the good stuff, why our happiness resets to “meh,” and what we can actually do about it. If you’ve been feeling chronically dissatisfied, overwhelmed, or like you’re missing the joy in your already-amazing life — this one’s for you. Whether you’re in full hustle mode or feeling a little lost between “next big things,” this episode is your permission slip to slow down, breathe, and start appreciating the incredible life you’re living right now. ✨ In this episode, I talk about: __ __ 💛 This isn’t about giving up on dreams. It’s about learning to love the life you’ve already built. 👇 Mentioned in this episode: Here are the articles and resources I talked about — → What Is the Hedonic Treadmill?

Is It ADHD or Am I Just Bad at Adulting? Expert Dr. Ari Tuckman Explains the Difference | Clutterbug Podcast # 273

If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly messing up — forgetting things, zoning out, missing steps, or just trying to keep your head above water — you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve wondered if you have ADHD… or maybe you’re just chronically overwhelmed and tired of feeling like you’re failing at “being an adult.” In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Ari Tuckman — psychologist, speaker, and leading expert on adult ADHD — to talk about what it really means to be productive when your brain works differently. We dive deep into how ADHD affects not just your focus, but your self-esteem, your past experiences, and your ability to trust yourself. Ari shares science-backed, shame-free strategies from his new book The ADHD Productivity Manual — and gives us permission to stop striving for perfection and start creating a life that works for us. Whether you’ve been diagnosed, suspect you might have ADHD, or just want to finally feel a little less behind all the time… this episode is packed with validation, laughter, and practical advice that will leave you feeling seen and supported. ✨ We chat about: __ __ 🧠 Learn more from Dr. Tuckman: → Website: https://adultadhdbook.com https://adultadhdbook.com/ → New book: The ADHD Productivity Manual — available everywhere books are sold 👇 What’s one ADHD-friendly strategy that works for you?
