Welcome back to Kindful the podcast.

In this episode I talk about the concept of 'Arrival Fallacy', which is "the illusion that once we make it, once we attain our goal or reach our destination, we will reach lasting happiness,” according to positive psychology expert Tal Ben-Shahar, who came up with the term.

I share some of my own personal experiences with seeking happiness, self worth and validation outside of myself, and in future outcomes and achievements. I talk about how this topic relates to many of the core principles of mindfulness, and how I'm learning instead to find joy in the journey of life.

I hope you find this conversation helpful and insightful. Thank you for being here and being you.
