In the past, status was about what you owned. Then it became information. Now it’s experience—and scarcity.

Description
In this episode, I reflect on how “status” is changing. It used to be about what you owned, then what you knew, and more recently what you’ve experienced. But an article I read suggested something quieter might matter most next: simply looking well-rested.
We talk about why good sleep, low stress, and steady energy may become a real signal of wealth—because you can’t truly buy them. I also explore other forms of “future status,” like access to genuine experiences and real relationships in a world filled with AI-generated content, and the ability to make time for joy.
As a parent of four, I share how this lens changed the way I think about family and long-term commitments—things measured less by money and more by time, care, and consistency.
