In today's world, the rules for dating have changed, and we'll talk to the woman who has written a new playbook coming up on Live Happy Now.

The ancient Greeks defined happiness as the joy you feel moving towards your potential.

To think about positive psychology, it's a science, and it's actually younger than the internet, believe it or not. We're all looking for the same thing, and that's a way to bring a little bit more joy to our day. Join us as we look at the many different paths that lead us to that happy place. This is Live Happy Now. Hello, and welcome to another edition of the Live Happy Now podcast. I'm your host, Jeff Sanders, and I'm going to thank you for making

us part of your day today. I also want to remind you that if you like what you hear on this show

and you want to add a little more positivity to your day, which I'm sure you do, you could do that

anytime by visiting our website, LiveHapy.com, or by picking up the latest issue of Live Happy magazine at your favorite local newsstand or

bookstore. This week, we're talking with Jenny Tates, a behavioral therapist and author of the new
