About this episode
Welcome back to the Pybites podcast! Today we hone in on the concept of "Enough", which we read about in the book "Psychology of Money" - chapter 3, titled "Never Enough".
We discuss what this means and relate it back to the Python developer journey and life in general, giving tips how to find the balance (which can be challenging).
As usual we also share Pybites wins + books we are reading.
Enjoy and reach out if you have feedback or want to hear us talk about any topic specifically.
