Podcasts about Happiness

The host explores a looming social crisis: the stark reality of modern relationships and happiness. Citing studies from the Pew Research Center and the General Social Survey, the host reveals that a significant number of Gen Z women don't believe marriage or motherhood leads to a happy life. However, he counters this with data showing that married women with children are actually twice as likely to report being "very happy" compared to unmarried and childless women. The discussion also highlights a growing partisan divide between young men and women, with Gen Z men being the most conservative in a century, creating a "demographic armageddon" that will make it harder for young people to find a compatible partner.

Most organizations aren't blind to the rising stress, burnout, and quiet quitting at work. They're just implementing workplace well-being programs that don't work. Leaders are left wondering why their people are disengaged despite offering meditation apps and mental health webinars. The real issue is that wellbeing isn't built into the business strategy.In this episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast, Ashish Kothari and Julie Rust-Bodenmann, former Global Head of Wellbeing at Credit Suisse, reveal what it takes to embed wellbeing into the DNA of a business, even during a crisis. Drawing from her time at McKinsey, Credit Suisse, and UBS, Julie walks us through how she designed and rolled out a global wellbeing strategy, secured C-suite buy-in, and mobilized a 500-person wellbeing champion network across the organization.Learn how you can make wellbeing a strategic lever, not just a benefit.Things you will learn in this episode:• Why most wellness programs fail to move the needle• How to shift from treating wellbeing as a benefit to a business strategy• The critical role of role modeling and middle managers• How storytelling and regulatory pressure can win executive support• Why starting small and scaling what works beats big, flashy initiatives• Julie's own wellbeing practices, and why leaders must start with themselvesTune in now and walk away with a practical blueprint and the conviction that flourishing workplaces aren't just possible, they're profitable.✅Resources:• Julie Rust-Bodenmann's website: https://www.rust-bodenmann.com/ • Oxford University Research: https://hubstaff.com/blog/employee-satisfaction-and-productivity/ • Me-Search by Tal Ben Shahar: https://podcast.wellevatr.com/me-search-the-journey-to-happier-living-with-tal-ben-shahar • Michael Landsberg's Sick Not Weak movement: https://www.sicknotweak.com/about/# • “This Is Me” Campaign (London): https://www.thelordmayorsappeal.org/news-and-events/events-calendar/1198/this-is-me-2023-event/ • World Economic Forum Study: https://reports.weforum.org/docs/WEF_Thriving_Workplaces_How_Employers_can_Improve_Productivity_and_Change_Lives_2025.pdf • Addressing Employee Burnout: https://www.mckinsey.com/mhi/our-insights/addressing-employee-burnout-are-you-solving-the-right-problem • ✅Books:Hardwired for Happiness: https://a.co/d/eoPlwdE

In 2014, Sarah Davidson stumbled upon what she calls the great happy accident, which set her on a journey of quitting her job as a lawyer to become an entrepreneur, bestselling author, MC and host of the Seize the Yay podcast. She loved her job, and she loved the idea of feeling as though she was successful in the traditional sense, but after a life changing trip, she started to realise that actually, success and happiness are two completely separate concepts. And here, we hear all about the journey she went on, which almost feels like the career version of matrescence. A metamorphosis of self. Here, we talk about the importance of exploring great instead of good, how she actually made her career pivot, how detrimental a lack of sleep feels as a new mum, and what it was like to go to a speaking gig just days after a D&C procedure for her pregnancy loss. —This episode was brought to you by Yoto.

Thus, every human being is continuously engaged in one experiment after the other in their own ways to experience new ways to attain fulfilling happiness and increase its intensity for a longer-lasting effect. Therefore, one of life's most rewarding endeavours has to be to spend time discovering, exploring, and studying what the Buddha – the foremost authority on the mind, expounded on this topic.

La question revient souvent : manger cru est-il forcément meilleur pour la santé ? Salades colorées, fruits frais, smoothies… Le cru évoque légèreté, vitalité et naturalité. Mais attention : si ses atouts sont réels, il n'est pas adapté à tout le monde.Les bienfaits du cruLes aliments crus conservent des vitamines et enzymes fragiles à la cuisson, comme la vitamine C ou certaines polyphénol-oxydases. Ils sont riches en fibres solubles, hydratants, faibles en calories et idéals pour ceux qui veulent "manger léger". Ils apportent aussi antioxydants et densité nutritionnelle, particulièrement intéressants pour une digestion robuste et un microbiote équilibré.Quand le cru devient difficile à digérerLe revers de la médaille ? Les fibres insolubles contenues dans certains légumes crus (chou, carotte, céleri) peuvent irriter la muqueuse digestive et provoquer ballonnements, fermentation et inconfort chez les personnes sensibles. Une étude publiée dans le World Journal of Gastroenterology (2014) a d'ailleurs montré que ces fibres aggravent les symptômes du côlon irritable.En médecine traditionnelle chinoise, on considère aussi que le cru "affaiblit le yang de la rate", c'est-à-dire la capacité du corps à transformer et assimiler les aliments. Résultat : fatigue après le repas, transit accéléré ou sensation de froid interne peuvent apparaître en cas d'excès.Trouver le bon équilibreLe cru n'est donc ni un miracle, ni un ennemi. Tout dépend du profil de chacun. Pour les personnes jeunes, toniques et sans troubles digestifs, il reste un atout nutritionnel. Pour les terrains plus fragiles, mieux vaut privilégier la cuisson douce (vapeur ou étouffée) qui assouplit les fibres, améliore l'assimilation des minéraux tout en préservant une partie des vitamines.En pratique, la meilleure approche est la modération : alterner crudités et légumes cuits, surtout en été, pour profiter des bienfaits du cru sans en subir les inconvénients.Hébergé par Ausha.

This insightful podcast explores how powerful individuals can avoid scandals, preserve their reputations, fortunes, and status through simple yet consistent discipline. It emphasizes the critical importance of choosing the right spouse based on character, integrity, and shared values rather than superficial qualities. Highlighting cautionary examples such as Shannon Sharpe and Astronomer's CEO, the article underscores that scandals often arise not from sexual desires but from ego-driven misuse of power. It provides actionable guidance on maintaining clear personal boundaries, prioritizing marital relationships, embracing transparency, cultivating humility, investing in personal development, and always considering the long-term impact of one's decisions. Check us out - Instagram and Twitter: JeroldJax Facebook: Jerold Action Jackson and Zone Of Action JeroldJackson.com Happiness starts with you.

Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer at Google X, now Chief AI Officer at Flight Story and bestselling author, joined Lester Kiewit for a conversation on happiness, work, and the future of technology. Reflecting on his own journey, Gawdat said, “I am the happiest I have ever been… Happiness is a calm and peaceful state of contentment when you’re OK with life as it is.” He explained his well-known formula for happiness, “Happiness is equal to or greater than the difference between the events of your life and your expectations of how life should be.” On the link between happiness and work, Gawdat was clear that no job can guarantee fulfilment. “Nothing has an inherent value of happiness within it. Sadly, most of us are convinced our job is the purpose of our life. That’s a very capitalist promise.” He added that moments of stillness are essential, saying, “When you step away from the manic pace of the world, even for a few hours, clarity sets in.” The conversation also turned to artificial intelligence and its role in shaping the future of work. Gawdat believes automation could bring about abundance. “AI can make everything almost free. The question is will humanity use this to take care of everyone, or continue to deny people a decent life if they are not productive?” When it comes to dealing with life’s difficulties, he draws a distinction between pain and suffering. “Pain is inevitable, but suffering doesn’t need to be generated by us. Happiness is not our privilege or right. Happiness is our duty because when you’re happy, you make a positive difference to the world around you.” Surprisingly, Gawdat also sees a role for AI in helping people form deeper connections. “One of my projects is a love coach AI that helps you know yourself better and find genuine connections. If our intention is real love, technology can even help us there.” As the conversation closed, Gawdat returned to his central theme. “Humanity’s duty is to find that calm and peaceful contentment I call happiness, and to spread it around to those they love.” Cape Town will soon host the Mind Matters Summit Step Into Your Focus and Flow taking place on Wednesday, 4 September at the CTICC.

Vous souvenez-vous du jeu "Cap ou pas cap ?" qu'on lançait enfants dans la cour de récré ? Un défi, un sourire malicieux, et sans réfléchir, on se jetait à l'eau… parfois littéralement. Avec les années, on devient adultes, sérieuses, organisées. Et on finit par oublier qu'oser peut aussi être synonyme de légèreté et de plaisir.Quand la peur de l'échec nous bloqueÀ force de vouloir bien faire, beaucoup se retrouvent piégées dans un excès de contrôle. On attend toujours "le bon moment", on veut être prête à 100 %, et bien souvent… on ne fait rien. Résultat : on reste coincée dans une zone de confort rassurante, mais qui finit par étouffer. Pourtant, la clé pour retrouver l'énergie et la confiance, c'est parfois de transformer le risque en jeu.Oser comme un jeu, pas comme un examenJouer à "Cap ou pas cap ?", même à l'âge adulte, c'est se donner la permission d'essayer sans se juger. Plus besoin d'être parfaite, plus besoin d'avoir un plan précis : il suffit de dire "cap !" et de voir ce qui se passe. Un petit défi peut suffire à tout changer. Monter sur scène au karaoké, tester un cours de salsa, oser dire non pour la première fois. Ces expériences simples créent une adrénaline positive, un sentiment de liberté et surtout, elles font grandir la confiance en soi.Prendre un risque ne veut pas dire se mettre en danger. Cela peut être juste une manière de s'offrir un souvenir inattendu, un moment de fun ou une nouvelle passion. Et plus on ose, plus il devient facile de recommencer.Cette semaine, choisissez un défi qui vous amuse, partagez-le avec quelqu'un pour qu'il vous encourage, et lancez-vous. Vous verrez : la vie reprend des couleurs dès qu'on y met un peu de jeu.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

In Luke 14, Jesus observes the guests of a dinner (being hosted by one of the leading Pharisees) essentially playing tic-tac-take your seat of honor. The Lord uses the opportunity to give at teaching on humility that is still of song of heaven's love for our hearts today.

You ever feel like your tank's always on empty? Even after the wins and good times, you still end up drained. Jesus says he's the only source that never fails. Stay connected to him and you'll find life.

L'amour ce n'est pas toujours rose, il y a des hauts et des bas, une part de soi que l'on montre et une autre que l'on cache parfois. A cette occasion, nous avons fait une sélection des films dispos sur Netflix qui parlent d'amour. Pas l'amour des rom com, mais celui que l'on vit, dans toutes ses ambiguïtés. Tout au long de cette saison, Alice Deroide est accompagnée de Jennifer Padjemi, journaliste indépendante spécialiste de la pop culture, pour vous faire découvrir ces films qui savent parler d'amour.  "Happiness Therapy", une comédie romantique un peu différente Les films d'amour nous font souvent miroiter une vie idéale, ou du moins une vie rendue idéale par une seule rencontre. En 2012, David O. Russell faisait le pari d'une comédie romantique un peu différente. Dans "Happiness Therapy", les deux protagonistes souffrent de problèmes de santé mentale. Le sujet était très peu traité dans la pop culture à l'époque, il l'est un peu plus aujourd'hui. Dans cet épisode de Love Story, Alice Deroide et son invitée Jennifer Padjemi décortiquent ce phénomène du box-office. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

May you have the courage to stand in your own knowing.May you find the grace to let go of striving for perfection, and instead embrace the sacredness of your imperfect, human journey.May luminous moments of optimism and possibility guide you,even as you move through gray times of despair and doubt.May you have the wisdom to choose differently, to prioritize what truly matters,creating a legacy that lingers. May you always find solace in the holy ground beneath your feet,the sacred presence that dwells within and all around you.Shine your light, dear one,your small, precious gifts are needed in this world.Happy Spring Equinox!

We are using this pigment to honor Áine, the Irish Fairy Queen, who is this year's featured goddess at Gaea Goddess Gathering.

In part 1 of this Q&A session, Joseph Goldstein gives Buddhist-flavored insight on accepting impermanence, developing our practice, and loving selflessly.In this episode, Joseph Goldstein offers his perspective on:The path from accepting impermanence to happinessLetting go of clinging and becoming attuned to the truth of changeThe stages we go through in Vipassana meditation practice Understanding meditation experiences—why difficult moments don't mean a “bad” practiceHow developing a regular practice helps us approach life more equanimously Feeling the whole mind-body process within practice and how this helps us let go of our sense of self Walking meditation as an effective tool for immediate selflessnessThe challenge of engaging with the world without getting lost in itSeeing the clear possibility of loving without attachment and with pure generosity of the heart“On a conceptual level, being afraid of impermanence is like being afraid of gravity. It's the way things are. The more we can see that and open to it, we get over that conditioned fear and we're just in the experience and the acceptance of the flow.

(0:00) — Sophie Grégoire Trudeau's Introduction and Background (3:35) — The Importance of Holding Ourselves (7:02) — Navigating Addiction and Hyper-Vigilance (8:33) — The Science of Happiness and Integrity (10:56) — Understanding Human Behavior and Emotional Intelligence (14:38) — The Role of Nature and Playfulness (15:32) — Navigating Personal Relationships and Trauma (40:01) — The Impact of Patriarchy and Toxic Masculinity (45:42) — The Importance of Self-Care and Emotional Regulation (46:00) — The Role of Playfulness and Humor in Emotional Health (49:08) — The Impact of Menopause and Andropause on Relationships Through the years, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau has had the occasion to meet inspiring world leaders — Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron, Pope Francis, King Abdullah II of Jordan, Michelle and Barack Obama, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, First Lady Jill Biden and President Joe Biden, and more — who've inspired her to bring about change and justice in the world. Sophie studied commerce at McGill University and holds a Bachelor's degree in Communications from the University of Montreal, as well as a certificate from the Promedia School of Television and Radio. Deeply passionate about exploring the great outdoors, she loves sports, movement, and yoga. She's the former First Lady of Canada, and she's also certified to teach yoga for children and adults, practicing and guiding meditation and yoga nidra sessions to reset the nervous system and find calm. Her first book, Closer Together (Penguin Random House and KO Éditions), encourages us to better understand the mechanisms of our own personality and the quality of all our relationships — most importantly, the relationship we have with ourselves.

The Dark Ages: Rome has fallen, the Church won't shut the fuck up, there's a killer plague for every season, and everyone else is dying of BOREDOM.Right? WRONG.Western Europe may have been a shitshow for much of what we ridiculously call the "Dark Ages," but the rest of the world had its act together.Specifically: Baghdad around the 800s AD. At the height of the Golden Age of Islam. They had libraries, they had mathematics, and...they had lesbian sex scientists.This week we're taking a tantalizing dip into the Golden Age of Islam to uncover a treasure trove archive of lesbionic women from medieval Arabia.Muslim philosophers and physicians had actual words for lesbians (or lesbian-like women), entire books about famous lesbian couples, and specific manuals that explained how to vigorously rub one out with your beloved.From labia gas to celery-and-rocket shakes, the science was...shaky, at best. But the spirit of inquiry was strong, and the genuine respect for lesbian love profound.Tune in to explore:Why doctors thought the only sensible treatment for lesbianism was – get this! – lesbian sexA 13th-century Kama Sutra-style manual that coined the “saffron massage” (and came with a guide to lesbian sound effects)The interfaith power couple Hind Bint al-Nu'man and al-Zarqāʾ, whose legendary love story inspired queer and heterosexual writers for centuries to comeThe lost books of lesbian couples with names like Basil and Clove and Justice and Happiness (welcome, ladies, to the queer Muslim SPICE RACK)How medieval lesbian communities were rumoured to hold meetings and sex ed classes, because like all good homosexuals, they got organized.

Melanie Smith's path to education entrepreneurship was anything but typical. A U.S. Army veteran who once worked in a European command war room, Melanie found her true calling in peace education through the Montessori method. After years teaching in both public and private schools, she launched Freedom Montessori Academy, an eco-school in Florida that blends individualized Montessori learning with nature-based education. In this episode, Melanie shares how her military background shaped her vision for peaceful, child-centered learning, why she took the leap to start her own school, and how she rebuilt her program after the challenges of the pandemic. Melanie's story is an inspiring look at resilience, innovation, and the entrepreneurial spirit driving today's microschool movement. ***   Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.

We all want to live a flourishing life—but what really leads to lasting happiness? Decades of research point to four essential keys. In this episode of the AC Podcast, Andy Steiger sits down with Doug Peters to unpack the findings, revealing how the data lines up with what the Bible has been saying all along. 

Research shows that simple practices such as self-hugs, soothing touch, and hand-to-heart can calm the nervous system, supporting caregivers and the children in their care.Summary: From parents to teachers, caregiving can be overwhelming and exhausting. This episode of The Science of Happiness dives into simple touch-based strategies that promote calm, reduce stress, and foster stronger connections. Researchers share how even brief moments of self-soothing or supportive touch can improve mental and physical health for caregivers and children. How To Do This Practice:  Sit or stand comfortably and take a moment to notice your body. Soften your jaw and shoulders. If it feels safe, close your eyes or lower your gaze. Place one hand on your belly, both hands over your heart, or give yourself a self-hug— whatever feels most comfortable and natural. Let the weight of your hands feel steady and supportive. Take a slow inhale through your nose and a longer exhale through your mouth. Silently repeat a kind phrase to yourself, like “How can I be a friend to myself today?” and “It's okay to make mistakes.” Feel the warmth and weight of your hands. On each exhale, invite a little ease into your face, shoulders, belly, and back. Notice any tiny shift toward calm. Wrap your arms around your torso and apply comfortable pressure, finishing with a gentle self-hug before returning to your day.  Scroll down for a transcription of this episode.Today's Guests:THERESA ALEXANDER is a pre-K teacher based in Arlington, Virginia, with nearly 20 years of teaching experience.
