In episode 13 get ready to redefine your understanding of happiness and discover the dynamic equation that leads us to a more enriched existence.

Hedonic happiness is about maximizing what feels good and minimizing what doesn't.

Eudaimonic well-being is based on the idea that real happiness comes from personal growth and a sense of purpose. It's like living a life that's true to who you are and fulfills your potential.

For true happiness in life, we need a balance of both. 

We unravel the intricate interplay between hedonic and eudaimonic well-being, understanding how seeking pleasure and pursuing personal growth intertwine to create a fulfilling life.

In this episode, a listener asks if they should get a prenup.

Rachel discusses the importance of prenuptial agreements when approaching this question from appreciation for the truth and protection. Prenups are not just for the wealthy; they protect financial interests and can actually promote trust in a relationship.

Additionally, the episode briefly introduces postnuptial agreements, which can be beneficial for couples who are already married and want to establish similar financial protections.

By considering prenups and postnups, couples can build a more secure future together.
