Encouraging Adventure and Distinguishing Between Wants and Needs With Dr. Doug

Conversations are built with questions. And great conversations are built with great questions. Dr. Doug has a delightful penchant for asking insightful and challenging questions in order to provoke new ideas and better ideals. He encourages his listeners to create lives that inspire vision and elevate the lives of others. “It’s not about what you’ve accomplished,” he says, “but what you’ve given back.” This podcast is an excellent balance of positivity and sincerity; we had a great time talking with Dr. Doug!

In this conversation, you will hear us discuss the rewards of minimalism and shifting focus away from consumerism to refocus on family. We touch on the difference between ‘wants’ and ‘needs’ and how to incorporate this concept into our parenting. And we look for ways to fill our lives with adventure to create happiness and resilience.
