Understanding these dynamics through the lens of generative drives offers a clearer perspective on the challenges faced in intimate partnerships.In this clip

I have a question about the episode Dr. Paul Conti: How to Understand & Assess Your Mental Health | Huberman Lab Guest Series and the clip Balancing Inner Drives. In the episode Dr. Paul Conti: How to Understand & Assess Your Mental Health | Huberman Lab Guest Series and the clip Demoralization Explained, there are heuristics about generative, aggressive, and pleasure drives. I don't understand the statement "Too high leads to ENVY, too low leads to DEMORALIZATION." Is it about the generative drive? How can a generative drive that's too high lead to envy? Is it more aligned with the aggressive drive that's too high?
