- Maatschappij en cultuur
Welcome to “The Happiness Contribution™ Show! Hosted by Rosaria Cirillo (Happiness Change Catalyst, Certified Happiness Trainer, Customer Experience Professional, and Laughter Yoga Teacher), in “The Happiness Contribution™ Show” we talk with remarkable people about the various roles Happiness plays in our lives, and we share knowledge and practices about what contributes to our happiness and how we can contribute to others’ happiness as individuals and as business leaders. And we do so grounded in the reality of life.
This episode – after 3 months unplanned hiatus - is a “special” edition in an unusual format… it is a solo episode during which our host Rosaria shares the life that happened to her in the past 3 months, which turned out to be the hardest time of her life to date. Within a few days, her world literally went upside down and got twisted, as her husband got a sudden life-threatening disease starting November 9th and was away from home for 85 days - 49 days in the hospital (of which 38 were in ICU) and 36 days at a rehabilitation center. In the first 75 minutes of this (long) episode, we share with you:
1) The full chronicle of the first few weeks in the hospital with a heavy dose of reality and challenges due to uncertainty about diagnosis (either Guillen-Barré Syndrome, Miller-Fisher variant, or botulism or both), including the bumps and the breakdowns Rosaria had along the journey,
2) The key interactions she had in this period (with companies, brands, doctors, nurses, and/or small local businesses) and the role each played
The part after 1:12:30 has now been moved to episode 19 and will soon be deleted from this episode. Now it still includes:
From (1:12:30) What depleted or saddened Rosaria
From (1:22:00) What enriched Rosaria and contributed to her happiness
From (1:32:00) Insights from Tal Ben-Shahar on how to turn a traumatic experience into an opportunity for growth
From (1:35:00) Rosaria’s overall learning and conclusion
