(Airs 11/17 @5:10 pm) Lucky by Design: Judd Kessler On the Hidden Rules that Shape Our Lives
What if luck isn’t random at all? Have you ever looked at someone’s success and thought, “They’re just lucky”? Behavioral economist Judd Kessler wants to change the way you think about luck. In his new book, Lucky By Design, he argues that what most people call luck is often the result of hidden systems, invisible rules, and strategic thinking. In this episode of Passion Struck, Judd joins host John R. Miles to unpack how we can all learn to navigate these hidden markets to create more opportunities in our lives. This conversation explores what Judd calls the three E’s: equity, efficiency, and ease; and how understanding these forces can help you make smarter decisions, reduce frustration, and design a more intentional life. He also reveals why sometimes the smartest move is not to go for gold but to settle for silver, and why clarity of intention matters more than perfection.
