So have you ever felt like something kind of crucial was missing from your life, even when you

achieved success and hit all the quote happiness milestones? Maybe like a voice inside whispered,

there must be something more, a richer, more vibrant way of moving through the world.

Well, if that's been your experience, my guess today just may blow open your concept of what

it truly means to live a rich, fulfilling existence. Renowned psychologist, Shigahiro Oishi,

exposes the pitfalls of rigid happiness chasing and reveals the radical path to a psychologically

rich life, one brimming with novel adventures and diverse emotional textures

and profound perspective shifts. And you'll discover really powerful mindset pivots to navigate

uncertainty with curiosity instead of anxiety, plus simple strategies to savor and embed

life's richest moments into lasting personal growth. Shagahiro is a professor of psychology

at the University of Chicago and a member of the

American Academy of Arts and Sciences who has received numerous honors, and his trailblazing

research explores the components of a truly rich life across cultures.

His insights really shatter conventional wisdom around happiness and meaning, and he reveals how aesthetic experiences

and playfulness can unlock untapped dimensions of vitality, sharing three essential ingredients

for curating a psychologically rich existence. So excited to share this conversation with you.
