The REAL Reason The 90s Felt So Good—And How To Get That Feeling Back
The Liz Moody Podcast
Uncertainty fuels nostalgia
Liz argues we cling to the past because it's certain while current political, climate, and AI risks feel unstable.
90s nostalgia is everywhere. It feels like this time we're never going to have again—no cell phones, no one able to track us or reach us, no AI, just this simplicity of our days and lives. And I think there's a reason we're all feeling this way right now that goes way deeper than fashion trends and Blockbuster memories—and it's something that almost nobody is talking about. And when we identify what we REALLY need, what that ache is really telling us, there are some key action steps we can take, without inventing time travel. So that's what we're going to get into today.
🎧 What you’ll learn:
• How to get the best parts of '90s life
• The surprising psychology behind nostalgia
• How to opt out of our always-on, always-performing culture
• Concrete steps to slow down your nervous system in a world that won't stop speeding up
