Today, I’m joined by a very special guest, Arthur Brooks, to discuss a very special topic: happiness.
Arthur is a Harvard professor, author, and social scientist specializing in happiness. He has written 12 books, including the New York Times bestseller “Strength to Strength,” along with “Build the Life You Want,” a book he co-authored with Oprah. Arthur is also a columnist for The Atlantic and was selected as one of Fortune Magazine’s “50 World’s Greatest Leaders” while serving as president of the American Enterprise Institute, one of the world’s leading think tanks.
In short, Arthur’s done it all. And if you want to talk about the science of happiness — and money’s role in the equation — he’s your guy. So that’s what we did in this episode.
Strap in for a packed conversation that applies to the core of doing business and doing life. You’ll hear about the relationship between money and happiness, how to adopt different habits that may increase your happiness, and how your brain changes as you age — and what that means for how you run your business.
