About this episode:
Today on the podcast we have Stephanie Harrison, founder of The New Happy, and soon to be published author with Penguin Random House for her book, The New Happy.
Stephanie, who has a masters in positive psychology, is on a mission to teach us the truth about happiness, and why - when you do everything right, pursuing the right jobs and education - you still don’t feel happy. Stephanie's interest in studying happiness started many years ago when she worked at LinkedIn, and her interest in workplace happiness grew when she worked at Thrive Global. The New Happy started as just a curiosity, then a newsletter for family and friends and now a community of millions of people - with millions of followers across her newsletter and recognisable Instagram page.
We talk about how it got started, why everything you know about happiness is wrong, how she got over the fear of posting online, and why you don't need to read the science to know that helping people makes you feel happy.

Along with his wife, Dr. Kathlyn Hendricks, he has co-authored many books including Conscious Loving - where they explore how you can have creativity, and happiness in your relationships all through life - shedding relationship habits that keep us small and stuck. 
In this episode we talk about relationships and how to live in our full potential:

How to take responsibility in relationships - and avoid racing to the victim positionHow not to lose yourself in relationshipsWhy your happiness about someone's flaws is normally enabled by youWhy there is 200% responsibility to take in the relationship How to radically eradicate criticism from your relationshipWhy a fear of being fundamentally flawed or outshining someone can hold us backhow do we stop nagging and instead use that energy for our own creativity?
This an episode for anyone interested in getting more from life, in understanding how they can build more fulfilling relationships and work.

Today on the show we have Jo Marchant - a New York Times bestselling author and speaker. Her writing explores the nature of humanity and our universe, and today we talk about her book 'Cure' all about the mind-body connection.
Cure begins with a simple question: can our minds really heal our bodies? It is a controversial subject, but she studies it with the scientific rigour learnt from her PhD along with a skeptical and open mind. She uncovers evidence that our subjective thoughts, emotions and beliefs can have very real benefits for our health, from easing symptoms and influencing immune responses to reducing our risk of getting ill in the first place.
She explores everything from hypnosis to meditation, from placebos to positive visualisation – to explore the power, and limits, of healing our body with our mind.
This episode is a bit different from normal, we explore the science instead of her own journey making the book, but I hope you enjoy it just as much!

The Speed Project is hard to explain. It is a 340-mile relay-style race from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, which started as an adventure between friends and has since scaled to global participants. It's an unsanctioned "unofficial-official" race (which means there are no official rules, and no spectators), and has been called "unsanctioned, unhinged, underground and off the grid" - as well as "the secret fight-club style race" (BBC), and "Hardest Running Race in the World" - Hypebeast)
In this episode we talk about:
The birth of the speed projectWhy Nils loves running why it's an anchor in his lifeWhy people should allow people to love their work and get paidWhen you should quit a side project Why your 'why' matters so much.How you can keep going when doing such an extreme race
