S20E5: The Science of Happiness (In Relationships) w/ Dr. Laurie Santos

Do relationships make us happy? If so, why are unmarried and childless women the most happy cohort of people out there? Because happiness is more than milestones as we chat with Dr. Laurie Santos about the complexities and common misperceptions when it comes to our overall well-being. And that's certainly not to say social connection and relationships aren't important! We'll dive into the U-shaped happiness curve, the way to enhance personal happiness while dating, and how to shift your focus to nurture your overall well being regardless of your relationship status.
