This week on Chaos and Chemistry, hosts Legan and Max unpack why so many people reach their goals, get the car, the house, the career, and still feel… empty.

Together, they dive into four powerful reasons why success can feel hollow, why wins don’t always register, and what it takes to break free from the endless cycle of chasing “more.”

You'll hear:

• Why success isn’t an emotion—and why mistaking it for one sets you up for disappointment.

• How chasing a future state keeps you stuck in the same fears and patterns, no matter what you achieve.

• What it means to self-generate the feelings you’re looking for instead of hoping external milestones will give them to you.

• How to redefine success based on your values—not society’s, not your parents’, not the media’s.

The conversation is raw, challenging, and deeply practical. Max and Legan share personal stories, cultural critiques, and examples from figures like Jim Carrey and Will Smith to highlight what real fulfillment looks like.

The takeaway? Success is not about external trophies—it’s about coming home to yourself, choosing actions today that make you proud, and planting a “success garden” rooted in love, respect, and presence.
