About Declan Edwards

Declan Edwards is the founder of BU Happiness College and a researcher dedicated to the 'no-fluff' science of feeling and living our best. Whether he’s presenting at the United Nations, speaking for the Red Cross, or guest lecturing at Bond University, Declan’s message is clear: happiness is an evidence-based skillset, not a stroke of luck. He has helped thousands of students increase their happiness by an average of 57% by focusing on the science and skillsets that uphold human flourishing. He’s here today to move us past the surface level fads and into the actual habits that build a great life.

 

In today’s episode, Declan talks to Chris & Filly about:

  • How as a younger man, he was chasing the next achievement, the next goal, thinking THEN he would be happy - but was actually met with discontent and bouts of depression
  • The foundation that was Declan’s springboard to create happiness: creating a great relationship with self
  • Why we need to stop chasing and “pursuing” happiness
  • Breaking the myth that you’re either naturally happy or not
  • Why understanding our emotions and working with them is the gateway to happiness
  • The 3 steps to build happiness: self-regulation, getting to know what you WANT, like and desire, contributing to others
  • 3 science-backed skills to start practicing, if you’re feeling stuck in body burnout and life feels hard
