Episode Details

In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl reflects on his conversation with Krista Tippett, host of On Being, which led him to explore the idea of money as a collective story we've all agreed upon. He delves into how money, though just paper or digital numbers, gains power through our collective belief—a useful story that can drive progress but also a dangerous delusion when given too much meaning. Carl introduces the "$100 bill meditation," a thought experiment that encourages listeners to reframe their relationship with money by considering its true nature and the narratives we attach to it.
