Today’s episode is a quiet but powerful one. I’m talking about well being through the lens of positive psychology, not hustle, productivity or pretending everything’s fine.

If you’ve ever looked like you were doing well on the outside but felt empty, tired or disconnected on the inside, this conversation is for you.

I share my own experience with burnout, the idea of the happiness poverty line, and why life satisfaction matters more than we’re taught to admit. We also explore the PERMA framework and how joy, meaning, connection and progress can be rebuilt gently, without fixing yourself or doing more.

This is an invitation to slow down, check in and make space for what actually matters.

Highlights:
