Gretchen Rubin and Elizabeth Craft tell each other about the different shrines they’ve each built in their homes, and how highly curated material possessions can add to happiness. They also examine the many distinctions in peoples’ personalities that are important for helping individuals build habits in unique ways, e.g.: are you a night owl or a morning Lark? Plus, a listener questions about making habits stick, Gretchen’s Demerit, and Liz’s Gold Star.
