In this episode, we look into the threats of the ideology of compromises, where busy schedules and our addiction to adrenaline turn us into human robots. The many expectations of our work, family and social circles lead us to give up our interests to focus on paying-the-bills activities, leaving us with a sensation of emptiness and lack of energy. Michka exposes tools and techniques to help us stay hungry, focused and cultivate passion, so we can have a more fulfilling life and greater impact.
