We Took the Happiness Test… and It Backfired

FEB 25, 202665 MIN

Description

In this episode, Jason and Emily break down the famous 85-year Harvard Study on Adult Development, the one that followed people for decades to figure out what actually makes for a good life. It turns out it’s not just money or success, but relationships, purpose, stress, habits, and how you handle conflict over time. Naturally, instead of calmly reflecting on this like mature adults, they ranked themselves and each other on a scale of 1–10 in several of the study’s core areas. The result is equal parts thoughtful, competitive, revealing, and mildly dangerous for a marriage. If you’ve ever wondered how you’d score in the “good life” department, this episode might make you want to find out. Musicbed License MB01LB14RC1PRTN MB01LPNLPFWSBVO Learn more about your ad choices.
