The Moment That Made Me Ask: Is This Podcast A Mistake?
Episode description
What do we mean when we talk about happiness? And, is there a genuine way to experience more of it, especially in a time where it feels so flippant or out of reach?
These are the questions we wanted to ask happiness expert Dr Tim Sharp (he's literally Dr Happy). And even though he specialises in positive psychology, Dr Happy knows how difficult it is to feel joy when the state of the world is so ugly.
So, what can he tell us about our expectations of happiness? Is it a worthy pursuit, or are we asking the wrong question on this podcast?
