We're at McKay here and welcome to another edition of the Art of Manliness Podcast.

So there's a tendency in people to think if they only live in a super cool place, their

lives would be infinitely better.

And while it's true that geography can influence our well-being, we often vastly overestimate how

much moving will actually improve our lives.

I mean, if you're miserable in one city, you're probably going to be miserable somewhere

else.

There's truth to the adage wherever you go.

There you are.

Now let's face it, we often don't have complete control over where we live, do jobs, family

obligations, and other factors.

So how can you learn to love the place you live?

Even if you don't feel it's the place of your dreams for the most ideal location.

My yesterday has been your researching the burgeoning science of what's called Place

Attachment in order to answer that question.

This is where you belong, the art and science of loving the place you live.

And onto the show today, Melody and I discuss what place attachment is and what you can do

to have more of it for the place you live.

It's a great podcast filled with some extremely actionable advice.
