How caring for others can make a difference in our own happiness
Description
Today’s episode features part 1 of my interview with Dr Mark Setton, PHD in Philosophy D.Phil., co-founder and CEO of Pursuit of Happiness, a non-profit organization dedicated to data driven research into the study of happiness and depression prevention.
This week our discussion revolves around what inspired Mark to co-found the Pursuit of Happiness Organization and the research that they focus on and the implications it has for helping us find happiness in our day to day moments. Mark shares with us the first 2 of 7 Habits of Happy People.
What fascinated me most about my interview with Mark was learning the importance of relationships and how acts of kindness can make such a difference in not only someone’s else life but in our own well being and mental health. These are two tools that bless both parties. These are two ideas I cover in Two Mothers One Prayer as well: the importance of reaching out and connecting and then finding ways to express love to those around you. I would say two universal truths. I would love to hear your thoughts on these ideas and what Dr Setton has shared so far. Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
I hope you will enjoy this interview as much as I did.
