In this episode of Life After Kids, Dr. Brooke and Dr. Lynne tackle a topic often left unspoken — grappling with mortality as we age. Guided by their expertise and personal experiences, they explore the challenges and opportunities that arise when entering this new phase of life. The conversation delivers not only reflections on aging but also actionable advice that empowers listeners to embrace life with renewed perspective and vigor. Throughout the episode, they delve into the psychological aspects of aging and the associated anxieties. They emphasize the importance of reframing this life stage as an opportunity for growth and happiness. With statistics from the Gallup World Poll, the conversation touches on how life satisfaction can fluctuate with age, offering encouragement by highlighting the uptick in contentment typically observed in one's later years. Keywords like "healthy aging," "life satisfaction," and "embracing change" underscore the narrative. Key Takeaways: Life satisfaction often reaches its lowest in middle age but improves in the later decades, offering a new perspective on aging. Embracing the finite nature of life can drive individuals toward more fulfilling experiences and deeper relationships. Building strong social networks and focusing on physical health are pivotal for achieving a long, happy life. Avoiding unnecessary stress, focusing on quality over quantity, and letting go of past burdens can lead to personal growth and fulfillment. Making the most of your present circumstances can lead to a richer, more joyful life.

The latest edition of the annual World Happiness Report has been released, offering a fascinating insight into global well-being. Compiled by the Gallup World Poll in collaboration with the University of Oxford and the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network, the report analyzes data from over 140 countries to determine where people are happiest. If you're familiar with the World Happiness Report or similar rankings, you won't be surprised to learn that European nations continue to dominate the list—especially the Nordic countries, which consistently rank among the happiest in the world. But what factors make a country happier than others? And which nations have climbed or dropped in the rankings this year? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

The Case of Optimism - Part 3 - Ep #63Each year I record one episode of this podcast that makes the case for why we should be optimistic. This is part 3. (Click here for part 1 and here for part 2) There are a lot of disturbing events and trends that are happening in the world at present and yet despite all of these concerns I'll argue the case for why we should remain optimistic about our future.In this episode...The climate is actually great [6:18]How Happy Are Americans? [14:17]How Americans are missing out on billions [16:23]This episode is airing in June of 2024 and we are starting to see some market volatility of late. That can create a lot of fear in the hearts of investors. Add to that a war that continues to rage in Europe, Add to that a war that continues to rage in Europe, and finally add to that a presidential election this November where a solid majority of people overwhelmingly don't want either candidate to be president. There is a lot we can worry about but yet despite all of these concerns we really should remain optimistic. Let's look at some of the evidence as to what's so great:The first is to consider the state of democracy. We are in an election year where we are told that our democracy is at stake, and you get that from leaders and followers of both political parties. For this reason the upcoming presidential election is one of investors chief concerns. there certainly has been more challenges to the pillars of democracy in the USA and also in other countries around the world but it's much wiser to step back and take a longer view of the state of democracy. In 1976 just 23% of countries were legitimate electoral democracies but it's 51% now. That is remarkable progress. The brutal terrorist attacks perpetuated by Hamas on October 7th, were absolutely sickening. Iran fired 170 drones, more than 30 cruise missiles and more than 120 ballistic missiles but due to the marvels of technology and the help of allies 99% of them were intercepted or eliminated.I recently read the book “Unsettled” by Steven E Kooning, The subtitle of the books is this “What climate science tells us, what it doesn't, and why it matters”. Dr. Kooning notes that heat waves in the US are now no more common than they were in 1900 and that the warmest temperatures in the US have not risen in the past 50 years. Weather-fixated television news would make us all think that disasters are getting worse. They're not. Around 1900, 4.5 percent of the land area of the world would burn every year. Over the last century, this declined to 3.2 percent. In the previous two decades, satellites have shown further decline — in 2021, just 2.5 percent burned.Here's additional details on how far we have come: Global poverty rates have been reduced by 50% in the past 20 years. A hundred years ago, three-quarters of the world's population lived in extreme poverty. Today, it's less than 10%. Human life expectancy has doubled over the past century, from 36 years in 1920 to more than 72 years today. Americans fell to 23rd place in happiness, down from 15th a year ago, according to data collected in the Gallup World Poll for the World Happiness Report 2024. In the U.S., self-reported happiness has fallen in all age groups, but especially among young adults. Americans 30 and younger ranked 62nd globally in well-being. If you want to know how great you have it, you should really travel more to third world countries. What we have here in America, especially the freedoms provided by the inspired...

Now I'm going to read parts of that article. So here goes and I quote: "According to a BBC analysis of 10 years of data from the Gallup World Poll, women are getting angrier. Every year the poll surveys more than 120,000 people in more than 150 countries asking, among other things, what emotions they felt for a lot of the previous day. When it comes to anger and stress however, the gap between men and women is widening. In 2012 both genders reported anger and stress at similar levels. Nine years later women are angrier. And there was a particular divergence around the time of the pandemic. Psychiatrist Dr Lakshmi Vijayakumar believes this is the result of tensions that have emerged as more women become educated, employed and economically independent in countries all over the world including poorer ones. "At the same time, they are tethered down by archaic, patriarchal systems and culture," she says. "The dissonance between a patriarchal system at home and an emancipated woman outside of home causes a lot of anger." Every Friday evening at rush hour in Chennai in India, she witnesses this dynamic in action. "You see the men relax, going to a tea shop, having a smoke. And you find the women hurrying to the bus or train station. They're thinking about what to cook. Many women start chopping vegetables on their way back home on the train." In the past, she says, it wasn't considered appropriate for women to say they are angry, but that's changing. "Now there is a little bit more ability to express their emotions, so the anger is more." Many more women than men said they were stressed in Brazil, Uruguay, Peru, Cyprus and Greece. In Brazil almost six in 10 women said they had felt stressed for much of the previous day, compared with just under four in 10 men. Many women in the USA and elsewhere have now reached a place where they are able to say, "No more! And they're using their anger to do it," "You need rage and anger," agrees Ginette Azcona at UN Women. "Sometimes you need these, to shake things up - and have people pay attention and listen." unquote. Well Mac thanks for the donation and topic. Anger makes people pay attention and listen to women. Especially the white knights. Ten years of smart phone adoption means that women aren't getting as much attention in real life like they used to so they are angry. Being upset and acting out forces people to pay attention to you because at the very least they perceive you as a threat.

Gallup World Poll just released the results of its annual Law and Order Index, which ranked Tajikistan as the most secure country in the world. The poll was based on whether people “are confident in their local police, feel safe in their neighborhoods, and were victims of theft or assault in the past year.” The rating surprised some, and there is certainly another side to the story of law and order in Tajikistan. Joining host Bruce Pannier to discuss the situation are guests Marius Fossum, the longtime Central Asia representative of the Norwegian Helsinki Committee, and Muhamadjon Kabirov, whose family fled Tajikistan to escape political repression, and who currently serves as editor in chief of the Tajik-language news network Azda.TV, which is based in Europe.
"At the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, we study how people respond to climate change. So what do people around the world understand or misunderstand about the causes, the consequences, and solutions? How do they perceive the risks: the likelihood and severity of different types of impacts from sea level rise to the health impacts? What kinds of policies do they support or oppose? And then what kinds of behaviors are people engaged in or willing to change to be part of climate solutions? There are lots of different things there, but our ultimate question is answering why. What are the psychological, cultural, the political reasons why some people get engaged with this issue? While others are kind of apathetic and some are downright dismissive and hostile, or at least they are in the United States, which thankfully is not the case in most of the rest of the world."Anthony Leiserowitz, Ph.D. is the founder and Director of the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication and a Senior Research Scientist at the Yale School of the Environment.

"So the why really depends on where you are. People are not all the same. There is no such thing as the public. There are many, many, many different publics within a state, within a country, within the world, right? So one of the first cardinal rules of effective communication is know your audience. Who are they? What do they know? What do they think they know? Who do they trust? Where do they get their information? What are their underlying values? And it's only once you know who they are that you as a communicator can go more than halfway to try to meet them where they are not where you are. Where they are. That's so easy to say, but it's actually so hard for so many of us within the climate community to do because we're steeped in this issue.

There is no such thing as the public. There are many, many, many different publics within a state, within a country, within the world, right? So one of the first cardinal rules of effective communication is know your audience. Who are they? What do they know? What do they think they know? Who do they trust? Where do they get their information? What are their underlying values? And it's only once you know who they are that you as a communicator can go more than halfway to try to meet them where they are not where you are. Where they are.

Welcome to Passionate Life Church! Today, Pastor Andrew continues a series on the importance of living according to scripture. We are so glad you are here! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV) 1. Because this Bible was written to give us purpose. When we live with a biblical worldview we live with purpose. The Gallup World Poll 2015 states 25% of people from 160 countries are living with purpose. When people live with no purpose substance abuse and depression kick in. The Children's hope Chest -970 million people around the world struggle with some mental illness or drug abuse. • Globally, substance use is responsible for 11.8 million deaths annually This is one in five deaths globally. • More than half of those who die from alcohol or drug overdoses are younger than 50. -14.3% of deaths worldwide, or approximately 8 million deaths each year, are attributable to mental disorders. -The prevalence of all mental disorders increased by 50% worldwide from 416 million to 615 million between 1990 and 2013. • Suicide is the fourth leading cause of death among people aged 15-29. • In the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, global prevalence of anxiety increased by a massive 25%. • The United States has the highest global death rate from mental health issues and drug abuse • 19.86% of adults are experiencing a mental illness, and 4.91% are experiencing a severe mental illness. • Among U.S. adolescents aged 13-18, an estimated 49.5% of adolescents had any mental disorder. That's half of all adolescents. Exodus 20:17 (NIV) Covet: to desire, take pleasure in. Even the idea of the “American Dream” is demonically used to steal people's purpose. We need to change our perspective when reading our Bibles. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV) -Teaching: refers to lifestyle. The word shows us how to live. -Rebuking: allowing the Holy Spirit to convict our lives and repent of our sins. -Correcting: to make straight again to restore. -Training: giving proper instructions that trains us to reach full development. Righteousness: right standing with God. Living in the Father's will. Fully equipped: to have everything we need to finish out our race. Good work: to toil in good soil that produces the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:22-23 (NLT) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for listening!

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Taking happiness seriously: Can we? Should we? Would it matter if we did? A debate, published by MichaelPlant on June 29, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Mark Fabian and I recently had a debate at EA Global London: 2023. In it, we discuss taking happiness seriously: Can we? Should we? Would it matter if we did? We both really enjoyed doing this. We don't think EAs think enough about well-being or debate enough in general, and we hoped our discussion was a way to bring out some of the issues. We only regret we could get stuck deeper into the topic (and I only regret that couldn't get the clicker working...). (You can see the slides for this talk here and here.) Taking happiness seriously (Happier Lives Institute) Let me start you with a real-life moral dilemma. For £1000 you could double the annual income of one household living in absolute poverty. You could provide 250 bed nets, which would save in expectation 1/6 of a child's life or 1/6 of your child. You could treat 10 women for depression by providing a 10-week course of group therapy, or you could do over 1000 Children. And of course, what we want to do is to do the most good. But the question is, how do we know that we're doing that? Two paths to measuring impact I want to point out there are really two parts to measuring impact. The first is what I've called the objective indicators approach, which I think is just sort of the default approach that society has taken for the last 100 or so years. To think about impact, we look at objective measures of well-being, such as health and wealth, and then we make intuitive trade-offs between them. An example of this is GDP. That's our default measure of social progress. More economic activity is good. However, the objective indicative approach seems to miss something. It seems to miss people's feelings, their happiness, and how their lives are going for them. Where is that in the picture? An alternative, then, is the subjective well-being approach where we use self-reported measures of well-being such as happiness and life satisfaction. The typical case would be 0 to 10. How satisfied are you with your life nowadays? And so my proposal in this session is that we should take happiness seriously. We should set the priorities using the evidence on subjective well-being trying to work out. You might wonder, is this a new radical idea? Well, the first steam train, the Coalbrookdale Locomotive, was built in 1802. And the idea that we should take happiness seriously is as old as that. Thomas Jefferson, writing in 1809 said, “The care of human life and happiness is the first no legitimate object of good government.” Jeremy Bentham, writing in 1776 said, “The greatest happiness of the greatest number is the foundation of morals and legislation.” And looking further back, you have Aristotle who said, “Happiness and meaning and the purpose of life is the whole end and aim of human existence." This idea is old. It's older than the steam trade. It has real lineage to it. What's new? Data But what is new is that now we have data. It was only after the Second World War there started to be large-scale surveys of households on how their lives were going. Gallup was founded in 1946. It was in 1972 that there are two countries started having nationally represented examples of subjective well-being. The US General Social Survey, the Gross National Happiness Index in Bhutan. And in 2005, there's the first global survey on well-being. There's the Gallup World Poll, which runs in 160 countries and surveys 98% of the world's population. In 2011, the UK starts to collect and measure data on well-being. The UK is kind of weirdly enough a world leader in measuring well-being. You'll hear more of that later. In 2012, there was the first edition of the World Happiness Report. People know th...
According to a 2022 Gallup World Poll, 60% of employees reported being emotionally detached from work, with 19% stating that they were miserable. Job dissatisfaction and unhappiness are truly multifactorial states brought about by several facets ranging from systemic-wide issues to extraneous phenomena that could occur in an employee's personal life. With the commencement of the pandemic, burnout and unhappiness in the workplace were evidently recognized within the medical sphere. In fact, in 2019, the National Academies of Medicine published "crisis" level burnout rates among healthcare professionals, specifically up to 54% of physicians and nurses. How can one tackle stress overload in the workplace? What do we do if we are no longer happy with our jobs? What are the signs of a toxic work environment? How can healthcare workers navigate their careers amidst the heightened rates of burnout and moral injury?We are joined today by Dr. Hamza Gaj, a board-certified dentist from Austin, Texas, and the Host of the Hanging Out With Hamza Podcast. He received his BS in Biology, Psychology, and Business Foundations from The University of Texas at Austin in 2012 and DMD from Midwestern University in 2018. With his previous experiences with job unhappiness, being subject to racism, and a lesson-filled heartbreak, we delve into a conversation discovering the importance of preserving our mental health, developing modalities of self-care, finding purpose in our careers and in the workplace, accepting emotions that we feel during painful life seasons, and expressing vulnerability to our patients as healthcare providers.Livestream Air Date: September 16, 2022Hamza Gaj, DMD: IG @mogajFriends of Franz: IG @friendsoffranzpod & FB @friendsoffranzpodChristian Franz (Host): IG @chrsfranz & YT Christian FranzThankful to the season's brand partners: Clove, BETR Remedies, Eko, Lumify, RescueMD, Medical School for Kids, Your Skincare Expert, Twrl Milk Tea

SUMMARY People have become less connected to nature, particularly with increasing urbanization. However, many studies are now clearly demonstrating that nature connectedness is crucial to our physical and mental health, and to the future of our communities' social, cultural, environmental, and economic well-being. Audrey Hystad, farm manager for the Clubhouse Farm in Kelowna, BC and Dr. Holli-Anne Passmore, assistant professor of Psychology at Concordia University of Edmonton, discuss the increasing need for people, and more specifically children, to be outdoors, learn about food and agriculture, and contribute to more resilient communities. They also talk about biophilia, our innate attraction to nature, and eco-anxiety, particularly as it relates to the ongoing degradation of our natural environment. TAKEAWAYS This podcast shows that: Educating children about food and agriculture contributes to resilient communities Outdoor play is essential for the health and well-being of children Studies demonstrate the importance of nature connectedness Connecting with nature is just as important as social connections We all have an innate attraction to nature The physical and mental health of people improve with daily connection to nature Eco-concern and eco-anxiety can lead to increased pro-environmental behaviour SPONSOR GUESTS Audrey Hystad, MSc Audrey Hystad holds a Master of Science degree in Sustainable Enterprise from Stockholm University, in association with Stockholm Resilience Center and Stockholm Environment Institute. From the lens of Resilience and Complex Systems Theory, her focus is to take the latest in research and effectively put it to use in practical applications. Her work with land-based learning, policy and procedure development, wildlife safety practice, and identification and use of wild foods, has contributed to fill gaps between our modern societies and the ecosystems services that we rely on to survive. Audrey has worked with toddler to teen programs for over a decade in Sweden and Canada. Her interdisciplinary science education and intent to contribute to a more resilient future for our communities, have led to her work with The Clubhouse Farm project. The Clubhouse Farm is a forest-and-farm-based outdoor classroom that brings children to play, relax, and explore in the natural world while learning about where food comes from. The basics of horticulture, hydrology, architecture, engineering, ethics, interpersonal skills development, and more are lessons that are stealthily disguised as inquiry-based play at a developmentally appropriate level for children of all abilities. Since its 2012 grassroots start, it has successfully benefited thousands of children that have visited, while supporting local food production, acquisition of ecological knowledge, and support of habitat for biodiversity – offering great hope for future design of integrated community spaces that meet the needs of all its stakeholders.

Jon Clifton: Blind Spot Jon Clifton is the CEO of Gallup. His mission is to help 7 billion citizens be heard on their most pressing work and life issues through the Gallup World Poll, a 100-year initiative spanning over 150 countries. He is a nonresident senior fellow at Baylor University's Institute for Studies of Religion and serves on the boards of directors for Gallup and Young Professionals in Foreign Policy. Jon has been interviewed on BBC News, Axios, C-SPAN's “Washington Journal,” and Al-Jazeera, and he has testified in front of the U.S. Congress on the state of American small business and entrepreneurship. He is a frequent contributor on Gallup.com and has written for The Hill, The Diplomatic Courier, and The Global Action Report. He is the author of Blind Spot: The Global Rise of Unhappiness and How Leaders Missed It. In this conversation, Jon and I discuss why many objective numbers like GDP appear positive and yet don't correlate to wellbeing and happiness. We examine how to think about more subjective measures and ways for leaders and organization to gain insight. Plus, we dialogue about what managers can do to help make genuine connections in the workplace. Key Points While objective trends worldwide such as GDP and the Human Development Index have been positive for decades, people are angrier, sadder, and more worried than ever. There's a key distinction between how someone sees their life and how someone lives their life. Money does not buy happiness, but it is hard to be happy without it. Frequent conversations, listening, and framing work around strengths are key actions managers can take to address unhappiness with employees. Examples of questions/survey topics to ask of customers to gain insight into emotional attachment: Company always delivers on what they promise. I feel proud to be a Company customer. Company is the perfect company for people like me. Examples of questions/survey topics to ask of suppliers to to gain insight into emotional attachment: Company always treats me with respect.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Large-scale International Educational Migration: A Shallow Investigation, published by Johannes Haushofer on August 12, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Jasmin Baier, Johannes Haushofer, Hannah Lea Shaw with input from Toman Barsbai and Merve Demirel 1. Introduction Two thirds of the world's population live on less than $10 per day (Our World in Data), and 60% of the global variability in income is explained by where one is born (Milanovich, 2015). Perhaps as a result, many people want to permanently migrate to another country: in low-income countries, the share ranges from 20–59%; among Africans under 25, it is 33% (Gallup World Poll, own calculations; Figure 1). At the same time, many high-income countries experience significant gaps in their labor force, both in terms of skills and raw numbers, resulting from low birth rates and aging populations. The OECD estimates that this workforce gap will amount to 450 million people by 2050. These figures suggest that increased international migration would have benefits both for migrants themselves, and for destination countries. Indeed, the economic benefits of removing international migration barriers amount to large fractions of world GDP — one or two orders of magnitude larger than those of trade barriers (Clemens, 2011). Recognizing this, many high-income countries are actively working to reduce migration barriers. This is especially true for educational migration: many countries are working towards internationalizing their higher education systems, simplifying student visa and work requirements, and reducing tuition costs (e.g., in the case of Germany, keeping university completely free, even for third-country nationals). For the migrants, international educational migration provides access to the labor market in the destination country, and additionally combines the returns to migration with those to education. The goal of this investigation is therefore to explore international educational migration as a possible mechanism to increase migration opportunities and alleviate poverty. 2. Potential Impact 2.1 Direct Economic Impact on Migrants Cross-country estimates of the returns to migration suggest potential impacts on income around 1,500% (Figure 2). Studies that permit causal claims have shown that international migration generates income increases of several hundreds of percent. For instance, labor migrants from Tonga to New Zealand increase their income by 263% one year after migration (McKenzie, Stillman, and Gibson 2010). Similarly, Mobarak et al. (2020) estimate returns of around 200% in terms of income from low-skilled migration between Bangladesh and Malaysia. Because these studies estimate individual economic gains from labor migration, often low-skill, we view these estimates as lower bounds for the impact of educational migration, which combines the benefits of migration with those of education. Specifically, education itself has large returns, on the order of 10% per year (Peet, Fink, and Fawzi 2015). Importantly, these returns are unlikely to decay over time. (This stands in sharp contrast to e.g. cash transfer programs, whose effects have been shown to dissipate over time; e.g. Blattman, Fiala, and Martinez 2020). Unfortunately, we are not aware of causal evidence on the returns to international educational migration. However, to provide a concrete example for the likely returns, we briefly summarize estimates for the impact of the educational migration program Malengo, with which we are associated. Malengo enables Ugandan secondary school graduates to apply for and complete an English-taught Bachelor's program in Germany. The cost of the program per student net of administration costs is EUR 11,971, which includes a living expense stipend and semester fees for the first year; application expense...
A fome aumentou no mundo com os impactos econômicos da pandemia de covid-19, mas a situação se tornou ainda mais grave no Brasil. A parcela de brasileiros que não teve dinheiro para alimentar a si ou sua família durante algum período nos últimos 12 meses subiu de 30% em 2019 para 36% em 2021, patamar recorde da série histórica iniciada em 2006. Esta também é a primeira vez que o nível de insegurança alimentar no Brasil supera a média mundial. Os dados aparecem em pesquisa elaborada pelo economista Marcelo Neri, diretor do Centro de Políticas Sociais FGV Social. O estudo foi realizado com base no processamento de dados coletados entre agosto e novembro pelo Gallup World Poll, instituto que aplica questionários padronizados desde 2006 em 160 países sobre temas como saúde, educação, moradia e qualidade de vida. Considerando a média de 120 países, a insegurança alimentar aumentou 1,5 pontos percentuais no mundo contra 6 pontos percentuais no Brasil, ou seja, a piora do risco de fome foi quatro vezes maior no País. Em entrevista à Rádio Eldorado, o economista Marcelo Neri disse que a piora já vinha ocorrendo desde 2014 e se agravou durante a pandemia, puxada principalmente por mulheres e pelos mais pobres. “O cenário é preocupante. A inflação dos pobres é dois pontos mais alta do que a dos com renda mais alta. O desemprego deve subir por causa do aumento dos juros pelo Banco Central para conter a inflação. O cenário é bastante duvidoso neste ano. É crise sobre crise”, afirmou. Acompanhe aqui a análise do especialista.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Per il terzo anno consecutivo la Finlandia è il Paese dove si è più felici al mondo. Lo sancisce il World Happiness Report redatto dalla United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network in base ai dati del Gallup World Poll. L'Italia ha guadagnato tre posizioni, scalando il 25/o posto. Dietro la notizia L'aumento dei prezzi delle materie prime sta preoccupando le aziende italiane. Persino il legno è salito del 7% da ottobre 2020 ad oggi, mentre la gomma fa registrare +10%, il grano +13%, il mais addirittura +31%, il rame +26%, il ferro +38% e il petrolio +53%. A monte di questi incrementi c'è il surriscaldamento dell'economia cinese e ora anche di quella americana che, sommate, fanno il pieno delle forniture e sostengono l'impennata dei prezzi. Obiettivo Sud "Divenire capaci di spendere i fondi" Ue a partire da quelli di Next generation Eu "e farlo bene è un obiettivo del governo. Vogliamo fermare l'allargamento del divario" Nord-Sud e dirigere "i fondi in particolare su donne e giovani". Lo dice il premier Mario Draghi intervenendo a "SUD - Progetti per ripartire", e aggiunge: "Il successo in questo compito può essere un passo verso il recupero della fiducia nella legalità e nelle istituzioni, siano esse scuola, sanità o giustizia".

According to Gallup World Poll data, Sub Saharan Africa has the highest percentage of single mothers worldwide - 32%. In typical African society, single motherhood is frowned upon (unless in the case of widowhood). Single mothers are meant to feel ashamed about raising children apart from their fathers. In this solo episode, I share about what being a single mother has been like for me in the past 3+ years. I touch on emotional wellbeing, finances, family/friend support and answer a couple of questions from Instagram followers. RELATED EPISODES 25. Life as a Single Mother 31.

Can money buy happiness?Many great minds throughout history have tried to answer this age-old question. And I bet you’ve pondered it a time or two...Over the years, there haven’t been any great anwers eithe, leaving many of us still wondering if money can truly buy happiness, and others assuming that it does.As a result, millions of people have bought into the idea that they need to spend their lives chasing wealth as the way to happiness and wellbeing.Which totally works out for capitalism, right? Make people feel like they need more shit to be happy. Keep the world turning round.Enter Daniel Kahneman, a 2002 Nobel prize winner, whose research has added some interesting perspectives on the role of money in increasing a person’s sense of well-being.In a nutshell, his study determined that having enough financial resources to afford life’s basic needs is crucial to avoiding significant degrees of emotional distress. He found that in the United States, the income that seems to hit the bullseye on the money-happiness relationship is about $75,000 per year. At these levels, higher income may increase life satisfaction, which refers to how people think about their lives. But well-being or how life feels on a daily basis, stays the same.More recently, a 2018 study from Purdue University used much wider data from the Gallup World Poll and found that the ideal income point for people is $95,000 for life satisfaction and $60,000 – $75,000 for emotional well-being. So taken together, these studies found that people’s emotional well-being, or how they felt on a daily basis, didn’t improve as they made more than $75,000, but their life satisfaction, or how happy they were with their life overall, did...up to about $95,000.Interestingly, above $105,000 it started to go down!Dr Sonja Lyubomirsky, a leader in the field of positive psychology, summarizes the idea like this:You need money to meet basic needs, such as access to healthcare and a safe place to live. If you grow up without resources like food, clothing or shelter, then having more money really makes a huge difference in your life and overall well-being.But once you hit that middle class level, there really is no correlation above that. When you have a bunch of money, at the end of the day you still ask yourself, “Am I living a meaningful life?”“What is my purpose?”You still have to answer those questions.And here’s the other thing: being rich is relative.We have an evolutionary tendency to compare ourselves to other people. When we feel like we can’t maintain the same standard of living as our peers, it makes us unhappy.How you rate yourself in terms of your subjective well-being, like whether you feel like you’re happy or satisfied or not, is very dependent on how you see other people doing around you and what they have.But here’s something I want you to remember: despite the role that money does play, purpose is more important than money to be happy.Research consistently shows that if you want to be happier in your job, you shouldn’t chase a high salary. It doesn’t mean you should turn down a good salary, but don’t let that be the driving force. From a happiness standpoint, it’s more important that your job provides a sense of meaning or purpose.A place for you to have your strengths shine.And the ability to have those basic needs met.Not only does having meaning make you happier, but studies have shown that you tend to be more productive, too. When you’re engaged in an activity that you find challenging and satisfying, you experience that flow state – what I like to call your “Peak Experience”.Truth is, how you spend your money is really critical to your happiness as well.In today’s episode, I share some pro tips on what this could look like and offer suggestions for a few places you can start right now.We are in a time when our habits around money and shopping are changing.Simply understanding what will make you happy is essential. Being aware of our money beliefs and being open to challenging them and shifting them, is more important than ever.The work needs to start on the inside – with your thoughts, your goals, your values, your living with meaning and purpose.Finding balance between finances and other life-domains is a key aspect to achieving happiness. I invite you to dig in with me. And I challenge you to ask yourself::: What level of financial freedom do you want to see in your life?Like you’ve heard me say before: Money in this society is power. And we need more people with that power who want to use it for good.Money is not evil in and of itself. It's how you earn it and how you spend it. So earn it with integrity. Spend it with love. In This Episode You’ll Learn:Why how you spend your money is critical to your happiness – and why spending it on experiences, rather than material things, might be a good place to start;)Various studies that have examined the plateau point for money’s impact on people's happinessWhy dream-based budgeting can make all the difference – stop wondering what you need, and be honest about what you actually need vs wantAbout the psychological phenomenon called “hedonic adaptation” – and why it explains that simply getting more money doesn’t make us happierHow to understand the difference between pleasure and happiness – because although money can buy pleasure, it doesn't necessarily mean it can buy happinessWhy imagining your dream income is the first step to making it happenResources:// Want to dive in deeper?

The world happiness report link: http://worldhappiness.report/ https://s3.amazonaws.com/happiness-report/2019/WHR19.pdf The key variables in the happiness number: 1. GDP per capita 2. Healthy Life Expectancy (HLE). Healthy life expectancies at birth are based on the data extracted from the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Global Health Observatory data repository 3. Social support (or having someone to count on in times of trouble) is the national average of the binary responses (either 0 or 1) to the GWP question “If you were in trouble, do you have relatives or friends you can count on to help you whenever you need them, or not?” 4. Freedom to make life choices is the national average of responses to the GWP question “Are you satisfied or dissatisfied with your freedom to choose what you do with your life?” 5. Generosity is the residual of regressing national average of response to the GWP question “Have you donated money to a charity in the past month?” on GDP per capita. 6. Corruption Perception: The measure is the national average of the survey responses to two questions in the GWP: “Is corruption widespread throughout the government or not” and “Is corruption widespread within businesses or not?” The overall perception is just the average of the two 0-or-1 responses. In case the perception of government corruption is missing, we use the perception of business corruption as the overall perception. The corruption perception at the national level is just the average response of the overall perception at the individual level. 7. Positive affect is defined as the average of three positive affect measures in GWP: happiness, laugh and enjoyment in the Gallup World Poll waves 3-7. These measures are the responses to the following three questions, respectively: “Did you experience the following feelings during A LOT OF THE DAY yesterday? How about Happiness?”, “Did you smile or laugh a lot yesterday?”, and “Did you experience the following feelings during A LOT OF THE DAY yesterday? How about Enjoyment?” Waves 3-7 cover years 2008 to 2012 and a small number of countries in 2013. For waves 1-2 and those from wave 8 on, positive affect is defined as the average of laugh and enjoyment only, due to the limited availability of happiness. 8. Negative affect is defined as the average of three negative affect measures in GWP. They are worry, sadness and anger, respectively the responses to “Did you experience the following feelings during A LOT OF THE DAY yesterday? How about Worry?”, “Did you experience the following feelings during A LOT OF THE DAY yesterday? How about Sadness?”, and “Did you experience the following feelings during A LOT OF THE DAY yesterday? How about Anger?” “Yet the gross national product does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education or the joy of their play. It does not include the beauty of our poetry or the strength of our marriages, the intelligence of our public debate or the integrity of our public officials. It measures neither our wit nor our courage, neither our wisdom nor our learning, neither our compassion nor our devotion to our country. It measures everything in short, except that which makes life worthwhile." —Robert F. Kennedy. Contact us at info@cloudstreaks.com

How many adults worldwide don't have access to basic financial services? And why does financial inclusion matter? The World Bank's Global Findex report answers these questions and more using Gallup World Poll data. Joe Daly, Gallup partner and manager of the worldwide project, explains the new report's findings and where disparities in financial inclusion still exist. Later, the recently passed tax reform law will have an impact on many Americans' taxes -- but most adults are unclear about how it will affect them.
