Today's guest is one of my role models, author and lecturer Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar. Tal taught two of the largest classes in Harvard University’s history, Positive Psychology and The Psychology of Leadership. His books have been translated into more than twenty-five languages and have appeared on best-sellers lists around the world.

Tal is a true ally in the shift to use science to legitimize the value of the pursuit of happiness. This episode is packed with practical takeaways on creating and maintaining a prolonged happiness, especially during this difficult time of pandemic.

Listen as Tal shares:

• His answer to the "three secrets of happiness" (hint: reality)
• The perils of blindly following the media's "magnifying glass" effect in times of widespread fear
• The Three R's you need to create lasting change
• The paradigm shifting possibility of Post Traumatic Growth as an outcome of hardship

This episode is part of our Silver Linings theme.
