Summary

Too many of us have decided that our mission in life is to be happy and content. But instead of teaching you to find this mystical land of always happy, I want to teach you to be alive. 

So in today's episode, I share a new perspective on why having a contrast of emotion is so important. Learn why the concept of happiness could actually be robbing you of living a life where you expand and fulfill your purpose.

Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast, where it's all about real clients,

0:14.0

real problems, and real coaching. And now your host, Master Coach Instructor Brook Kistillo.

0:23.2

Hello, my friends. Today we're going to talk about a liveness.

0:28.3

I think there is a confusion about why we have our human lives. I think that we are sold,

0:42.4

story, life, being to buy that we should be happy all the time. And that the way to be happy

0:53.6

all the time is to look a certain way, to have a certain amount of money, to buy certain things.

fully alive. I just taught a class in scholars on happiness, how to get more of it. And I really

2:17.6

humans, go through your life trying to figure out what you need to accumulate, what you need to do,

2:24.6

how you need to be, how you need to act in order to land at this place called happiness and live

2:32.3

happily ever after. We're just always happy all the time. So let's go to the land of happily ever

2:41.1

after. Have you nodded off yet? Everybody's happy all of the time. You're just happy to be alive,

2:51.3
