EP479: Jennifer Moss - How To Build A Happier Workplace - Part 2


Listen Later

"Don't choose happiness, because choosing happiness is a privilege for yourself that we don't always have. We can't always choose to be happy every day. That's not always in our ability, but we can choose happiness for others, and we can choose kindness. And so just choosing kindness will inevitably make you happier." -Jennifer Moss

In part two of our conversation with workplace happiness expert Jennifer Moss, we explore how kindness and connection create a lasting impact at work and beyond. This episode is a reminder that simple actions can ripple through your business in powerful ways.

In this interview, you'll learn…

  • Why altruism—not apps—is the key to lasting workplace happiness
  • How "positive gossip" builds psychological safety
  • Practical ideas to shift from burnout to wellbeing, one act at a time
