More Happy Life with Andy Proctor

What do you do to really connect with people in a sea of social media and technology? Today I interview Bryce and Nellie Jurgensmeier (from the growing YouTube channel "The Jurgys") about their journey growing their social following to well over 200,000 followers and why they started this journey in the first place. We talk about the importance of having a life-affirming quest and taking time out of our lives to go on our own adventure. I really admire the Jurgys and have followed them since they started and I hope you enjoy this interview! This one is a little bit longer, but well worth the listen if you want to be inspired and hang out with us.

How well do you know yourself? How deeply do you love yourself? In today's episode I interview the amazing Briana Johnson from The LifeBeats Project and we cover so many beautiful nuggets that injected me full of joy. You are good enough. You are not alone. Pain is a teacher. Failure is a teacher. Mourn what you lost or you can't accept what you have. The world needs more people who know who they are and who can share their worth to boost other people. This is a timely message for all of us.

In this episode I cover 6 ways to tackle loneliness by making new friends that I have tried and that I think are powerful. I hope you enjoy this format as it is me creating an audio version of my the latest blog post that you can find here:

How did you measure your success last year? Was it accomplishments? Was it steps taken? Was it by money earned? Whatever it was, here is a way to measure your year to come that will help you skew it toward a more happy year. The FJP index. How much fun, joy and play will you engage in this year? Try measuring your year this year by these things instead. Or at least add that to your measurements. 

This was inspired by Jeff Harry in his post here: https://medium.com/@jeffharryplays/yearly-fun-joy-play-index-9fa4824c158c

I LOVED reading all the positive news over the last few days about how this world is getting better. I hope you also enjoy and are inspired by these stories that prove that the world is not spiraling out of control, but is actually improving in countless ways. 

Don't just believe the news that is biased toward tragedy and trauma. Remember the positive news and that research shows there are more good things than bad things happening all the time and more good people than bad people.
