Pushkin Industries

You might think you know what it takes to lead a happier life… more money, a better job, or Instagram-worthy vacations. You’re dead wrong. Yale professor Dr. Laurie Santos has studied the science of happiness and found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will truly make our lives better. Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale -- the most popular class in the university’s 300-... more

  • I love the happiness lab🥹

    I’ve been listening since 2020. I found it by chance when scrolling through podcasts - I had never really been a podcast listener before and I was trying to start something new while out on my afternoon walks, and little did I know, I had stumbled upon a podcast that would change my life. more

    When I first started listening when the podcast was released, the content was spot on, but now there is too much marketing in the words being said by the “experts”. Too many opinions that are spoken as if it’s the truth. For reference, Just finished the episode about “good enough” relationships

Apparently they should have. Studies showed this after all. Plus Dr. Laurie Sa... more

  • The Starbucks ad is tone deaf

    I like the podcast, but the Starbucks ad is tone deaf on several fronts. Working in psych and social work means you have to be aware of social justice and your impact. I expect better from one of my own.
