Summary

Is there a secret to finding joy and happiness in life even when you’re struggling?

If you search the internet for advice on how to be happy, you will come across an ocean of results. Experts tout suggestions like getting good sleep, eating a nutritious diet, practicing gratitude and meditation, and everything in between. But is there a practical, science-based approach for finding these sometimes elusive emotions no matter what life throws your way?
To talk about this topic more in-depth, I’m excited to welcome Tal Ben-Shahar to the show today. Tal is a pioneering expert on positive psychology. He’s lectured all over the world and was the first person to design and launch a Master’s Degree in Happiness Studies. Tal is also the co-founder and chief learning officer of The Happiness Studies Academy.

The truth is, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to happiness. But there is a five-step staircase to help you climb out of despair so you can cultivate resilience and creativity in the face of adversity. Listen in as Tal equips you with actionable strategies for finding meaning, nurturing your mind, fostering supportive relationships, and embracing all of your emotions.
