In this episode, we dive into the psychology of ‘drop culture’ with Dr. Sarah Rasmi, exploring how scarcity and social media fuel obsession and anxiety. 

Then we turn to the world of youth sports with Dr. Shefali Verma to ask: are we raising kids to chase wins instead of wellbeing? 

From collectibles to competitions, we unpack the pressure to keep up, and what it’s doing to our minds and bodies.
