Why we want what other people want
Manage episode 406390283 series 3418160
This Isn't Therapy... it's the episode about mimetic desire: why we want what other people want. Human beings learn everything, including our desires, from imitation. In this episode, Jake and Simon go deep and peek behind the comparison curtain to reveal the reasons why we come to want what other people have. If you've ever thought "Ooh, I want that!" or "I should follow that trend..." or "I want more of that lifestyle." then this episode is for you.
P.S. Don't forget: Submit a quandary, query, or question with our newest segment Asking For A Friend...
