ep. 2 - Is the Joy of Discovery Disappearing?
Jun 16, 2025•21 min
Episode description
When was the last time you bought something or did something without looking it up first? No reviews, no ratings, no curated list of “hidden gems.” Just wandered, explored, and found something NEW.
In this episode, I’m thinking through how that kind of discovery is becoming rarer — and what we might be losing because of it.
From algorithm-fed shopping to perfectly planned nights out, we’ve optimized our lives to the point that spontaneity feels risky. What do we lose when we stop letting ourselves be surprised?
