Chasing Enough: How to Find Satisfaction in a World That Always Wants More (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248755868)

"This isn't just science-Dr. Luke Kalb writes with raw honesty and the humor of someone who knows the human condition deserves both compassion and a good punchline. If you've ever wondered why having everything still isn't enough, start here." Dan Tomasulo, Ph.D, Professor, Columbia University and author of Learned Hopefulness.

Why are we so dissatisfied despite having more than ever?

We all know that push to do more, have more, be more. It's the fuel for living. But it can also become an undertow, pulling you deeper into a cycle of desire where nothing ever feels like enough.

As a person in long-term substance use recovery and associate professor at Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Kalb has witnessed firsthand how the relentless pursuit of "more" cripples lives across every demographic. Whether it's wealth, achievement, or full-fledged addiction, craving can infiltrate every corner of our existence. This begs the question: can we ever have enough?

Introducing RISE: A Science-Backed Path to Contentment

Built on data from the foremost research on human well-being, Chasing Enough reveals Dr. Kalb's breakthrough framework for breaking free from the cycle of desire. Those who master RISE don't just survive-they thrive. They experience genuine, lasting satisfaction.

In an era of rising expectations and plummeting happiness, the answer isn't more. It's enough. Half of all proceeds from Chasing Enough will be donated to The Phoenix, a peer-support recovery community for people who want to live free from alcohol and drugs.

Chasing Enough is perfect for:

• Anyone struggling with dissatisfaction in their lives.

• Those with a nagging sense that success should feel better than it does.

• Readers of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck* and Dopamine Nation
