Screwed Up Moments

Several years ago, Tony found himself in a precarious position. He was an executive for a Fortune 500 company, he had worked hard and delivered project after project, but found that his values didn’t align with the environment that he was working in. Eventually, he left the corporate world to venture on his own path, except he would soon notice that the grass wasn’t necessarily greener on the other side.

Hello guys, hope you are doing well, here is another episode of our bonus series, Screwed Up Moments Plus.

In today's episode I am really excited to be speaking to Stephen Lew, who runs The School of Positive Psychology here in Singapore. His school promotes many of the same values that underlie many of our Screwed Up Moments stories including gratitude, resilience, or meaning, and several of the school’s graduates have even appeared on the podcast as well.

Here we talk about how and why Stephen got into the field of positive psychology, his winding and unconventional route to get there, as well as his own podcast, Getting Naked with Happiness.  

Hope you enjoy!
