E372: 🎙️ Welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast, your go-to resource for enhancing your English listening skills and expanding your active vocabulary. I'm Anna, and you're listening to Week 46, Day 1 of Your English Five a Day.

🔴 Join the ELAN Club, where you can access live classes, structured courses, and a supportive network to practise and improve your English.

🌟 Today we’ll start off by exploring the nouns "abundance" and "hedonic treadmill". Then, we'll delve into the adjective "default" and the verb "strive". Last but not least, we'll take a look at the verb "fade".

After some quick pronunciation practice and a recap to test your memory, we visit Carrie in today's story, who is keen to find out why people in wealthy societies aren’t necessarily happier, despite having an abundance of possessions. She learns about the hedonic treadmill and reflects on her own life, realising the importance of relationships over striving for material success.
