I am beyond happy (wink) to have author, researcher, speaker and general wonderful human Stephanie Harrison on the pod today to illuminate the ways this culture has brainwashed us and the ways we can get free. Stephanie has been researching happiness for the past decade, and with her internationally bestselling book, "The New Happy" she's here to teach us how to get happiness right in a world that got it wrong.
In this conversation, Stephanie illuminates how our society’s broken understanding of happiness is a root cause of all of the problems that we are collectively facing. She explores the concept of 'Old Happy,' which is shaped by individualism, capitalism, and domination, and how these forces contribute to collective unhappiness. We touch into the challenges of modern parenting, the impact of societal pressures on relationships, and the importance of connection in healing.
Stephanie tells us the truest simplest definition for happiness that she has found, and truly, there's no better place to live this way than in the context of parenting.
It's just too gals who care a lot and have spent their adult career learning about what makes us healthy and happy and have come to similar conclusions. This was an excellent episode!
