Episode description
We'll explore the fundamental building blocks of happiness and well-being, drawing on Maslow's hierarchy of needs and the balance between physical necessities and mental wellness. Angela reveals her daily practices of gratitude and emotional check-ins, and we delve into the difference between happiness and contentment. Is happiness a prerequisite for achieving goals, or is it a result of achieving them? Join us as we navigate these profound questions and provide insights into fostering a balanced, fulfilling life.
Finally, we'll shift our focus to the role of institutions in promoting individual happiness and achievement. From Angela Spence's inspiring foundation supporting underrepresented individuals to practical tips for managing work-life balance, we emphasise the importance of representation, safe spaces, and self-reflection. Celebrate the transformative power of diversity and the mission to make first-time achievements commonplace. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom and inspiration, perfect for anyone eager to understand and cultivate happiness in their lives.
