In this powerful podcast episode, we explore the biggest myths and misunderstandings about happiness, emotional wellbeing, and the inner work required to live a truly fulfilled life. Most of us are taught to chase happiness, avoid pain, and fix sadness, but what if that entire framework is wrong? This episode unpacks why chasing happiness can become a trap, how grief and depression are nonlinear, and why emotional intelligence is key to lasting peace.
Lenore shares deep insights into emotional language, perception vs. reality, and the concept of human flourishing.
