Inspired by an article about an author's mental decline, Belle unpacks how moderation can be a slippery slope, leading to obsession and compulsion.
She doesn't just stop there; she also explores the concept of the sunk cost fallacy and why recognizing when to let go is vital for mental health. With her own experiences woven into the narrative, Belle highlights the importance of mental health and quality sleep in combating these challenges. Whether you're questioning your own habits or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights that might just change your perspective.
