One of the biggest pressures of getting older is the idea of having to “figure things out” by yourself. How do we navigate the pressure to “know what we're doing” while also being flexible and open to new things? How do we process the reality that life might turn out differently from our childhood dreams? How do we process that life is less linear than we imagined?  In this episode of This Teenage Life, the teens talk about the anticipation of moving from high school to college and beyond. They grapple with expectations to figure out who they are and what they want to be “when they grow up," even while also recognizing that there is no end to growing up, and that all of life is a process of growing.

His experiences highlight the transformative power of community, mentorship, and resilience in overcoming life's challenges. In this conversation, Adam Beckley shares his journey through martial arts, detailing his struggles with back pain and how Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu became a transformative force in his life. He discusses the impact of the pandemic on his training and community, the growth of his martial arts school, and the importance of teaching methods that connect with students. Adam emphasizes the value of perseverance in martial arts and the lifelong benefits it brings.   TAKEAWAYS The impact of bullying on self-esteem and confidence. The challenges of accessing martial arts training as a child. The transformative power of mentorship in martial arts. The value of competition as a means of self-assessment.

In this episode, we're taking a closer look at the science (and soul) of happiness—not that shiny, fake, “good vibes only” stuff, but the real-deal, research-backed version. After attending a powerful talk by Harvard professor and happiness expert Arthur C. Brooks, we came back buzzing with insights, and we couldn't wait to break it all down for you.We're exploring what happiness actually means—spoiler: it's not just about smiling all the time—and how much of it is actually within our control. From the surprising role of genetics to the transformational power of habits, transcendence, relationships, and creative work, we're sharing key takeaways and offering practical, therapist-approved strategies to help you create a more meaningful, joyful, and resilient life. Episode Highlights:[0:47] - Our field trip to see Arthur C. Brooks live and why he's the happiness guy. [1:37] - The surprising science: 50% of happiness is genetic—wait, what?! [4:44] - Redefining happiness: Enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning. [6:11] - The real meaning of pleasure (hint: not just wine and cheese nights). [9:10] - What satisfaction really means and why feeling effective is everything. [11:12] - Meaning-making as a mental health superpower. [13:06] - Resilience and post-traumatic growth: Turning lemons into lemonade. [16:46] - Grappling with life's big questions: “Why are you here?” and “What would you die for?” [19:20] - Transcendence: Spirituality beyond religion and finding awe in everyday moments. [22:27] - Flow state magic: What gets us into it (spoiler: puzzles and cleaning included!). [27:51] - The #1 predictor of happiness: Relationships and why they matter so much. [30:17] - The power of community and intentional connection. [31:25] - Finding purpose in your work—however you define it. [33:41] - The art of the “active dabble” and why it's okay to not know what lights you up (yet). [35:49] - Wrapping with wisdom: Radical responsibility and the risks of autonomy. Resources:Arthur C.
