How to Live “A Good Life” with Dr. Mary Ellen Pethel Grounded on Purpose

What makes a good life? Some think it’s wisdom. Others put more value on wealth. Somewhere on the list is also happiness and health. So how can we achieve this quest for “a good life” if we all define it so differently? Professor Mary Ellen Pethel teaches a class called “A Good Life” at Belmont University in Nashville, TN and sits down with us for a mini-master class to help answer this age-old question.

Mary Ellen is an author, historian, digital humanist, academic entrepreneur, and creator of the historical walking tour app Nashville Sites. She is also one of the smartest, kindest, and most purposeful people I have ever met.

Join us as we tackle the $64,000 question of what makes “A Good Life."
