10% Happier with Dan Harris

I love how insightful the guests are and how Dan is so open and willing to be vulnerable and own his challenges. I have been uplifted more times than I can count. Thank you. My one grievance, which is something most famous people do, is to call out their friendships with other famous people. In today’s podcast, for example, he mentions Joseph Goldstein. Rather than just name him, he says ‘my (our) good friend’…It feels as though that comes from ego. How does it elevate the info for us, the listeners? It doesn’t.

I signed up for the free trial, listened all week, then canceled because I “couldn’t afford it.” 2 days later, I’m back. This is the only podcast I pay for because the bonus content with the meditations is really worth it to me. Thank you!

I sometimes wonder if I’m in the right tax bracket to be a listener of this show, lol. Even still, as a corporate millennial in middle management, some of the guests have genuinely changed the way I lead my team. Overall a great podcast that I listen to weekly.

While 9 times out of 10 I learn a great deal from the interviews Dan hosts, I found the. Recent conversation with the therapist who causations again weaponizing therapeutic language to be highly problematic and overly simplistic in ways that are not typical for this podcast. I hope your listeners will not feel as invalidated as I did coming out of an “abusive” marriage (and yes, it was abuse—even if he was often temporarily remorseful for his “narcissistic “ and “gaslighting” behavior. I eagerly await a conversation with a Buddhist who talks about the dangers of using Buddhist principles to spiritually bypass and gaslight itself in an abusive relationship.🙏
