How to Become a Better Human: Lessons on Kindness, Love, and Happiness (From a 10-Year-Old)


Listen Later

In today’s episode, you’ll reframe your perspective on happiness, kindness, and friendship through a fresh lens—all thanks to a surprising source: Mel’s 10-year-old guest, Elton. 

Mel is sitting down with this wise beyond his years kid for an impactful, profound conversation that will challenge you (and encourage you!) to be a better human. Elton’s simple but profound insights on everything from friendships and feelings to screen time and self-kindness are exactly what you need—no matter your age.

Forget the idea that wisdom only comes with age. This episode is an invitation to embrace the wisdom and curiosity of those younger than you. It’s a reminder that sometimes the most powerful lessons come from the most unexpected voices.

This episode is your call to get curious and excited about life again. This is the kind of advice that everyone —no matter your age—needs to hear, and you’ll leave this episode feeling empowered to be a kinder, more intentional friend, parent, sibling, and person.

You’ll also rethink how much time you spend on your phone, feel encouraged to reconnect with what brings you joy, and learn how to be gentler with yourself.

This is also a great episode to share with your kids or with anyone who is a parent.
