Do you feel like a lucky person?

All the big questions in this week's episode! Is luck a mindset? Are we taking opportunities that are right under our noses? Can we make ourselves more lucky?

Like most of us, I used to think that luck was something completely out of our control, but what if our mindset influences what we see in the world around us. I loved researching and recording for this one - hope you find it interesting and that it offers a new way of looking at the idea of luck! I speak about the distinction between luck and privilege, psychology studies by Prof. Richard Wiseman on self-described 'lucky' and 'unlucky' people, the 'luck factor' and whether our mental health influences how opportunistic we are. 

Enjoy the episode!! And let me know your thoughts @lucytalks_ on instagram, I loveee hearing what you think!
