Every single one of us is beautiful and capacious enough to have all of our difficult emotions and still choose who we want to be in the moment. You are not the cloud - you are the sky.

Introduction

Never in history have we been in such a dire need of happiness.

Today's grind culture dictates an unhealthy ideal of success that looks down upon sadness but leaves little space for finding happiness within ourselves.

Dr. Laurie Santos is a cognitive scientist, psychology expert, and public speaker who has been teaching people about our inner workings for over a decade.

Santos' course, Psychology and the Good Life, is the most popular course in the history of Yale University, with around 1,200 students enrolled each year.

In her podcast The Happiness Lab, Dr. Santos uses scientific data to help us lead a happy life.

In this episode from January 2022, Dr. Santos talks to South African psychologist Susan David about the importance of dealing with negative emotions — how to process them in a healthy way, and what we can learn from them.
