When you are pioneering anything or introducing new ideas to the culture, you get criticized.

You do?

Yeah. Did you hear about that?

I didn't find the one. I found someone I respected and we made it the one.

In a sort of longing kind of view of love, people understand each other as if by magic.

Nothing in itself is addictive on one hand. And in the hand, everything could be addictive if

there's an emptiness in that person that needs to be filled. I now know that nobody changes

until they change their energy. And when you change your energy, you change your life.

I'm Gwyneth Peltro. This is the Goop Podcast, bringing together thought leaders, culture

changers, creatives, founders and CEOs, scientists, doctors, healers and seekers. Here to start

conversations, because simply asking questions and listening has the power

to change the way we see the world.

Here we go.

Welcome to the Goop Podcast.

I'm Gwyneth Peltro, and today I am joined by Arthur Brooks, a social scientist, best-selling

author, and what many call the Professor of Happiness at Harvard.

Arthur's work explores what it really takes to live a meaningful life, from the habits that lead to

lasting joy to the neuroscience of love and connection. Today, we're talking about the science

of falling in love, how our brains are wired

for connection, why modern dating can feel so unfulfilling, and how to build relationships that

actually last. Welcome to the Goop podcast, Arthur Brooks. Thank you. Thank you, Glenn, I'm delighted to be with you.

I, my favorite subject, love and happiness.
