How To Earn Your Happy: The Hard Truth

Lori Harder | YAP Media
About this episode

I am no longer a person who is defined by anxiety and depression. I owe this to my ability to seek out challenges and be highly resilient to whatever life throws at me. It's easy to prioritize comfort and the familiar, but avoiding challenges will rob you of the joy and fulfillment you deserve. Scientific findings show that conquering challenges releases dopamine, and this rush of dopamine can be a powerful source of confidence and personal growth. Today, I encourage you to seek out new challenges, leave your monotonous routine, and foster an environment of resilience.


IN THIS EPISODE:

- The relationship between challenges and happiness

- How to build a solid foundation of self-confidence and resilience 

- Tips for injecting fresh energy into your life and releasing feelings of boredom, anxiety, and exhaustion 

- Ways to actively seek out challenges related to your fears or aspirations
