In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Ryan Moyer speaks with existential psychologist Dr. Clay Routledge about happiness & well-being.

They discuss the extent to which happiness is objective, the distinction between pleasure and well-being, how discomfort can be an important contributor to well-being, and how nostalgia can be used to cope with negative emotions.
