The Pursuit of Happiness: What Does HAPPINESS Mean To YOU?
Ever feel like happiness is a puzzle with pieces scattered in a thousand different directions? That's where Janelle and Eddie come in, piecing together the happiness puzzle with insights from Dr. Laurie Santos' renowned Yale course. Our latest episode is a deeply personal journey into the essence of joy, as we discuss why so many people don't feel as fulfilled as they expect, and why the thrill of excitement might just be a misleading guidepost on the road to true contentment.
As we traverse the landscape of well-being, we tackle the tough question of whether happiness is shaped more by circumstance or perception. Sharing stories of personal growth and examining the pitfalls of chasing novelty, we reveal how a deeper appreciation of our own experiences, combined with special moments of wonder, can enhance our lives. Happiness isn't just about what happens to us, it's about how we frame our narrative, and this episode is all about rewriting that story for a richer, more contented life.
Culture, they say, is the lens through which we see the world, and it's no different when it comes to happiness. In an intimate segment, we reflect on the diverse cultural narratives that shape our pursuit of joy, from my own experiences in a duty-first Asian household to the communal values that overshadow personal bliss in many parts of the world. We also explore the interconnectedness of physical well-being and emotional happiness, examining how the simple act of feeling good can cast a broad glow on our overall state of mind. Don't miss this exploration into what happiness could, and perhaps should, mean for you.

(21:23) Cultural Perspectives on Happiness
Culture, upbringing, and societal roles can shape one's pursuit of happiness, while physical well-being also plays a significant role.

Sexuality After Trauma
Today, I had the incredible opportunity to speak with the remarkable Marlee Liss. Marlee is a somatic educator, award-winning speaker, author, restorative justice advocate and lesbian Jewish feminist. Marlee made history in the justice system when her sexual assault case became the 1st in North America to conclude with restorative justice through the courts. Since then, she has coached hundreds of women and non-binary folk in healing shame and transforming trauma. I had the privilege of talking with Marlee about her story, what somatic education is and the positive impact that somatic healing can have for survivors of sexual assault and healing shame. Get ready for a thought-provoking and empowering conversation!
