Would you trade your best friend for a million dollars? Probably not—but that question gets at the heart of something important: what do we really value, and can happiness ever be measured in dollars?

For years, we’ve heard that money doesn’t affect happiness beyond a certain point—usually around $75,000, but recent research paints a more nuanced picture, one that’s worth paying attention to.

In this episode, I walk through the updated findings on income and happiness, and why financial security can support well-being—but only when it’s paired with internal growth. Because even a full bank account won’t lead to fulfillment if we’re not doing the inner work.

You’ll also get this week’s Happiness Challenge: a thought experiment that starts with a million-dollar question—what would you actually be willing to give up for money, and what’s beyond any price tag?

To go deeper, download the free worksheet for this challenge in the Podcast Resources Hub.
