Arthur Brooks, Harvard professor and bestselling author, transitioned from his early career as a classical musician to become a renowned behavioral scientist following a personal health crisis. He explores why many people, especially high achievers, often chase the wrong goals—like money, power, and fame—and how these pursuits can lead to emptiness rather than joy.

This episode is a scientific and personal guide to building happiness, grounded in practical tools and strategies that anyone can implement. Listen to the episode to learn more.
