Dan Harris is a fidgety, skeptical journalist who had a panic attack on live national television, which led him to try something he otherwise never would have considered: meditation. He went on to write the bestselling book, 10% Happier. On this show, Dan talks with eminent meditation teachers, top scientists, and even the odd celebrity. Guests include everyone from His Holiness the Dalai Lama to Brené Brown to Karamo from Queer Eye. On some episodes, Dan ventures into the deep end of the pool, covering subjects such as enlightenment and psychedelics. On other episodes, it’s science-based techniques for issues such as anxiety, productivity, and relationships. Dan's approach is seemingly modest, but secretly radical: happiness is a skill you can train, just like working your bicep in the gym. Your progress may be incremental at first, but like any good investment, it compounds over time.
New episodes come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for free. Listen 1-week early and to all episodes ad-free with Wondery+ or Amazon Music with a Prime membership or Amazon Music Unlimited subscription.

The Science Of Overcoming Perfectionism | Thomas Curran
This episode comes out for free on May 13th, and is available early and ad-free for Wondery+ subscribers.
Actionable advice on working with one of the few socially acceptable vices.
Whilst striving for perfection might seem logical on some level, it’s not actually attainable. And the research shows it can lead to burnout, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, reduced productivity, and reduced resilience.
Thomas Curran is a professor in the Department of Psychological and Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics and is the author of The Perfection Trap: Embracing the Power of Good Enough.
In this episode we talk about:
- The definition of perfectionism – it’s more than just high standards
- The 3 flavors of perfectionism
- The surprising findings on perfectionism and gender
- Perfectionism VS imposter syndrome
- The root of perfectionism
- The variables that lead to perfectionism
- Thomas’ critiques on capitalism and growth mindset
- How to actually implement mantras like “progress not perfection” and “embracing good enough”
- 4 elements to combat imperfectionism
- The recipe for achieving inner abundance
- How to make good work without caring what other people think of you?
- And parenting and perfectionism

Dua Lipa On: Radical Optimism, Falling On Stage, And “Writing Yourself Into A Good Idea”
This episode comes out for free on May 10th, and is available early and ad-free for Wondery+ subscribers.
Talking creativity and sanity with one of the world’s biggest pop stars.
British-Albanian singer-songwriter Dua Lipa emerged as a global pop sensation with her captivating blend of sultry vocals, empowering lyrics, and infectious beats. Born in London in 1995 to Albanian parents, Lipa's musical journey began at a young age, inspired by her father's own musical career. She hosts the podcast Dua Lipa: At Her Service, and her latest album is Radical Optimism.
In this episode we talk about:
- What she means by radical optimism – and how it applied when she literally fell on stage
- How she resists the temptation to fully armor herself
- Her famous work ethic and packed schedule
- Her non-negotiable daily practices, including meditation
- Her social media hygiene (specially, how to stay sane when nearly 80 million people follow you on Instagram alone)
- And we have a great conversation about creativity, including how she builds psychological safety with her team in studio and on tour
- Why she had to write 97 songs to make this one album
- And her concept of “writing herself into a good idea” – as she says, “You have to be shit to be good.”

I have learnt so much from this podcast, great content. I wasn’t so thrilled of the celebrity episodes, thank God, that was ended. The guests are really experts, not celebrities, and that the conversations are well choreographed by great journalism. Awesome guys, die hard fan and follower.
Let me know if you bring those live recordings to Amsterdam 😉!
